Loose ring Show Pelham with copper mix lozenge mouthpiece

How to use:

The Loose ring show Pelham is widely used in showing as an alternative to the Weymouth and Bradoon, it is a very pretty and neat looking bit, a superb show bit. It gives the look of a double bridle as this bit has to be used with a double bridle which has an extra bradoon head slip, as you would have with a Weymouth and Bradoon, this bit also has to worn with two reins.

The Pelham bit is often used for horses that prove to strong in a snaffle, the Pelham is a very popular bit. It uses a variety of pressures, which all in all seem to work together to prove a very useful bit. Basically the Pelham is an incorporation of the Weymouth and bradoon, and should theoretically be used with 2 reins, the first rein is attached to the snaffle rein, and the second rein attached to the ring at the bottom of the shank, when the first rein is used the Pelham acts like a hanging cheek snaffle, putting slight pressure on the poll and carious pressures in the mouth depending on the mouthpiece, when the second rein is brought into play, this increases the leverage and lip pressure, and also the curb chain comes into play, the greater the distance between the cheek slot and the mouthpiece the greater the poll pressure, the greater the length of shank the greater the amount of leverage. The curb chain should be fitted so that the curb chain tightens when the second rein is brought into play, but there must be a bit of give so not to tighten up straight away.

For jumping it may prove useful to use a elastic curb chain as some horses don’t like jumping in a curb as when the horse jumps it needs to stretch and if the reins are not ‘given’ in time it will cause the curb to tighten and maybe jolt in the curb groove, which the horse is obviously not going to like.

Lozenge Mouthpiece:

The Lozenge Mouthpiece bits have proven the one of the most popular of bits. The mouthpiece is the ‘New French Link’, it has a oval shaped link in the centre. The lozenge shaped link contours the tongue and forms a true contact. It has no protruding pressure points like the French link does (where the flat link joins the mouthpiece); it has 2 joints, which means the pressure of the bit is distributed over both the tongue and bars of the mouth. Because the mouthpiece has two joints, it shouldn’t cause any interference with the roof of the mouth. The Lozenge uses tongue pressure to encourage the horse to go on the bit and lower the head, it has bar and lip pressure but not a ’squeezing’ action like that of a bit with a single joint. The more joints a bit has the less likely the horse is to lean as the bit becomes more mobile.

Copper Mouthpiece:

Copper mouthpiece promotes salivation for a softer mouth.
