Fager Sally Titanium D-Ring Bit

Fager Sally is a good choice if you would describe your horse as the following;

• Stiff in the hand.
• Strong in the hand with a tendency to lean/pull on the bit.
• Attempts to place the tongue over the bit.
• Tosses the head in an attempt to evade the contact.

Fager Sally is a lightweight double-jointed bit with no locking mechanism, constructed in the extremely durable metal Titanium.

Sally is the perfect solution for horses that feel stiff and heavy in the contact, whilst at the same time express sensitivity to harsh hands. Fager Sally’s design relieves the constant pressure from the tongue and in combination with the lighter weight, creates a surprisingly different pressure as and when it is required.

The anatomical shape of the mouthpiece follows the natural contours of the mouth, dispersing the pressure evenly between the bars and tongue.  This specific design has proven extremely comfortable, particularly for those horses with a large, fleshy tongue.

The short centrepiece eliminates any palate interference as its breakover is positioned towards the outside of the tongue. Sally even suits horses with conformation of a low and/or short palate with a large tongue, which can be particularly difficult to find suitable bits for.

The Dee rings make the bit lay still in the mouth and prevent the bit from sliding side to side. The straight sides help with steering and framing.

At Fager we design our bits to always sit horizontally straight, there is never a bigger bend forward. The reasoning behind this is to ensure that the bit maintains the correct balance point (BP) in the mouth, creating stability and clear communication for the horse.  When a bit creates a bigger bend forward, it also moves the BP forward, detrimentally reducing the effectiveness of the aids
