Designed for the horse that benefits from gentle guidance toward balance and self-carriage, this Velari loose ring gag with a sweet iron single cherry roller mouthpiece is a thoughtfully crafted combination for riders who seek harmony through subtlety. It suits horses in active development as well as those who benefit from softening through the jaw and poll, ridden by hands that understand the value of lightness. This is a bit for those who believe that true collection begins with relaxation.
The loose ring gag works with quiet intelligence. As the rider softly takes up the rein, the mouthpiece slides gently upward, creating mild, even pressure at the corners of the mouth and behind the poll. This subtle action encourages the horse to seek its own balance and carry its head with greater ease, rather than being placed. The freedom offered by the loose rings allows natural movement within the mouth, helping the horse accept the contact willingly and travel with a softer, more trusting outline.
The mouthpiece is crafted from sweet iron, a material Velari has chosen for its natural affinity with the horse's mouth. Over time, sweet iron develops a gentle oxidisation that encourages salivation, inviting the horse to stay soft and mobile in the jaw. The result is a warmer, more accepting contact — one that supports a calmer way of going and builds confidence from the inside out.
Set into the centre of the mouthpiece, the single cherry roller adds a layer of subtle engagement. The horse can interact with it freely, encouraging gentle mouthing and chewing that travels through the jaw and into the topline. This quiet activity supports relaxation at a deeper level, often unlocking suppleness that other mouthpieces cannot reach. It is a small detail with a meaningful effect. Ideal for:
- Horses that benefit from encouragement toward self-carriage and balance
- Horses with sensitivity in the mouth that respond well to a warm, salivation-promoting material
- Horses that carry tension through the jaw or topline
- Horses in progressive training who are learning to seek a softer contact
- Riders with educated, sympathetic hands who understand timing and feel
Care & Use
After each ride, rinse the bit with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. Store in a dry place and check regularly for smooth, even wear. Make sure the bit is positioned correctly: the star must be on the left side and the Velari logo on the right.
