Fager Hugo is suitable for horses that you would describe as some of the following:
- Needs to be stable and seek a consistent contact.
- Worried in the mouth.
- Prefers stability and less movement.
- Has a sensitive tongue.
- Can pull the reins down/forward
Fager Hugo is a double-jointed Sweet iron bit featuring a Front Lock system. This means that the bit is lightweight enough to make the horse light in the hand, and when you have good contact in the reins, the bit locks like a straight bit. This will help your horse to maintain consistent contact if it struggles to trust the bit.
Hugo offers outstanding stability and comfort. When the horse is working, the Front lock is there to assist, whatever the positioning of the head. From a low position (stretching out) or higher (over a jump), the closure continues to work even if the reins pull the bit upwards, making the bit turn downwards – this is where a regular lockup system would fail. It also makes it considerably more forgiving against any unexpected movements of your hands.
The small tongue relief makes this bit a good option for horses with a sensitive tongue who can open their mouth, pull the reins, and move the tongue around.
Material
Sweet iron is a covering on top of a bit made of stainless steel. The purpose is to disguise the metal taste from stainless steel and create a pleasant, sweet taste, encouraging the horse to seek more contact and hold on to the bit. Following use, sweet iron will start to oxidize and turn brownish grey, this is to be expected.
Sweet iron is a good choice for horses who need to seek more contact with the bit.
Loose rings
Loose Rings are designed to move independently to the mouthpiece. This allows the horse more freedom to use his tongue, allowing them to place the pressure from the mouthpiece either higher or lower, whichever they prefer. Loose Rings are a good choice for a horse that can be slightly stiff or hard in the mouth.
