Equibrand Classic Performance Bit 8" Cavalry Ported
This final cheek in the Tool Box 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-inch and the shank 5-1/2-inch. The Cavalry designed shank is angled back to the horse, but at a straighter angle than the 7-1/2-inch model, causing a quicker, more immediate response. The purchase/shank alignment ratio increases leverage, creating greater realized pressure to all points of contact. The Ported has a stainless steel cheek with an inlaid copper ported mouthpiece. A higher port increases the degree of contact with the palate, while offering tongue relief with its 1-1/2-inch width. This bit is for the finished horse and is a tool for collection.
