Informed Designs Finesse Weymouth 14mm

The Finesse has an upwards sweep to the mouthpiece this is only one of two mouthpieces in the range that does not have a forward curve when static but allows a little overall tongue room when ridden at the optimum working angle. It has a very definite action and a real lift to the Horses frame.

Very useful for Horses that need:

• a lift to the frame
• a lift to the shoulder
• to transfer weight backwards
• be lighter into good hands

The Weymouth Cheek designed to work on three balanced pressures as the reins are used the Horse feels downward mouth pressure poll pressure and then these two pressures are balanced out by the chain or jaw strap moving onto the jaw to stop the first two pressures from over riding each other. It is crucial that the curb chain is set well so that the shank of the Weymouth only turns to about 45% and then the chain snugly tucks onto the jaw. Too tight and the Horse gets no release or reward and too loose and the pressures are unbalanced and the Horse will have to resist to escape. The correct mouthpiece should encourage the Horse forward into the contact and the three pressures control head frame, weight transferral and are your brakes! It is really important that the cheeks are the right length if they have been constructed poorly and not in balance then the bit simply does not work

The Finesse Weymouth works best if the horse is not too strong with the Harmony Loose Ring if the Horse is strong with the Response Loose Ring.
