It is designed for horses that benefit from greater movement and softness within the mouthpiece while requiring additional influence beyond that available from a straightforward snaffle action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"10634\" data-end=\"10923\"\u003eUnlike the more stabilising Confidence mouthpieces, Gentle allows greater movement and response within the mouth. This creates a more mobile interaction between horse and rider and can suit horses that already understand the rein aids but prefer a softer, less fixed feel within the mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"10925\" data-end=\"11311\"\u003eThe Baby Pelham adds another dimension to that communication. As the relevant rein is engaged, leverage brings the curb into action beneath the jaw, distributing the rider’s aid beyond the mouth and introducing curb and poll influence. This can provide additional control and refinement without requiring the rider to achieve that influence solely through increased mouthpiece pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"11313\" data-end=\"11461\"\u003eMade from Sweet Iron, the mouthpiece naturally oxidises with use, producing its characteristic taste, which can encourage acceptance and salivation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"11463\" data-end=\"11813\"\u003eThe combination is particularly useful for horses that are comfortable with a more mobile mouthpiece but require greater influence in situations such as jumping, faster work or more exciting environments. The intention is to retain softness and responsiveness through the mouth while giving the rider access to additional communication when required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"11815\" data-end=\"11853\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"11815\" data-end=\"11853\"\u003eMAY PARTICULARLY SUIT HORSES THAT:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"11855\" data-end=\"12564\"\u003e• Already understand the basic rein aids and contact.\u003cbr data-start=\"11908\" data-end=\"11911\"\u003e• Prefer a softer, more mobile feel within the mouth.\u003cbr data-start=\"11964\" data-end=\"11967\"\u003e• Become resistant or fixed in overly stable mouthpieces.\u003cbr data-start=\"12024\" data-end=\"12027\"\u003e• Benefit from the characteristic taste and feel of Sweet Iron.\u003cbr data-start=\"12090\" data-end=\"12093\"\u003e• Need additional curb and leverage influence beyond a snaffle action.\u003cbr data-start=\"12163\" data-end=\"12166\"\u003e• Become stronger when jumping or during faster work.\u003cbr data-start=\"12219\" data-end=\"12222\"\u003e• Require additional influence in more exciting environments.\u003cbr data-start=\"12283\" data-end=\"12286\"\u003e• Benefit from the rein aid being distributed beyond the mouth rather than relying solely on increased mouthpiece pressure.\u003cbr data-start=\"12409\" data-end=\"12412\"\u003e• Are ready for more sophisticated communication through the curb.\u003cbr data-start=\"12478\" data-end=\"12481\"\u003e• Need additional control while retaining movement and feel through the mouthpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"12566\" data-end=\"12586\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"12566\" data-end=\"12586\"\u003eDESIGN FEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"12588\" data-end=\"13186\"\u003e• Aster Gentle mouthpiece.\u003cbr data-start=\"12614\" data-end=\"12617\"\u003e• Designed to provide a softer, more mobile interaction within the mouth.\u003cbr data-start=\"12690\" data-end=\"12693\"\u003e• Sweet Iron naturally oxidises with use.\u003cbr data-start=\"12734\" data-end=\"12737\"\u003e• Characteristic Sweet Iron taste can encourage acceptance and salivation.\u003cbr data-start=\"12811\" data-end=\"12814\"\u003e• Compact Baby Pelham cheek.\u003cbr data-start=\"12842\" data-end=\"12845\"\u003e• Introduces leverage, curb and poll influence.\u003cbr data-start=\"12892\" data-end=\"12895\"\u003e• Curb action distributes the aid beneath the jaw as well as through the mouth.\u003cbr data-start=\"12974\" data-end=\"12977\"\u003e• Greater influence than a straightforward snaffle action.\u003cbr data-start=\"13035\" data-end=\"13038\"\u003e• Designed for horses that already understand the basic contact.\u003cbr data-start=\"13102\" data-end=\"13105\"\u003e• Combines a softer mouthpiece feel with additional adjustability from the cheek.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aster","offers":[{"title":"115mm","offer_id":57319420952916,"sku":"G-SI-115-BP","price":120.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"125mm","offer_id":57319420985684,"sku":"G-SI-125-BP","price":120.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"135mm","offer_id":57319421018452,"sku":"G-SI-135-BP","price":120.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"145mm","offer_id":57319421051220,"sku":"G-SI-145-BP","price":120.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/3453\/9348\/files\/33_b776e2b8-e399-447b-9ff1-4badbb93b0d8.png?v=1790597631","url":"https:\/\/asterhorse.com\/products\/aster-gentle-sweet-iron-baby-pelham","provider":"Aster bits ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
