Classic Equine Square Hinged Port Bit with Floral Scroll Cavalry Shanks

Classic Equine Square Hinged Port Bit with Floral Scroll Cavalry Shanks

This cheek is designed for the finished performance horse or tough-mouthed older horses where more control is needed. It can be used as a schooling bit to get a horse that is not responding to milder bits to collect and break at the poll. It is also often used in competition, and should not be used for daily training. The purchase is 2-1/2" and the shank 5-1/2". The purchase/shank alignment ratio increases leverage, creating greater realized pressure to all points of contact.
