Sprenger have launched the HS Weymouth in their new and totally unique metal called SENSOGAN®.
It is the distinctive composition of Copper, Manganese and Zinc that makes SENSOGAN® so special. The reduced copper content combined with the manganese results in a more regulated process of oxidation. Manganese is known to assist with building up connective tissue as well as for muscle and energy metabolism, it is also known to reduce histamine and can help prevent skin reactions Tests with the veterinary college of Hannover and the German Riding School in Warendorf showed without doubt this combination of metals has a positive influence on the horse’s satisfaction, motivation and willingness to perform.
The Sprenger SENSOGAN® HS Weymouth has a slight port that offers space for the tongue without squeezing the sensitive palate. The mouthpiece curves around the tongue in a smooth bow and is an ideal choice for horses that have issues with taking up a contact. By making this bit available in SENSOGAN® Sprenger have given riders an even more delicate and sophisticated connection to the horse.
The most popular lower cheek size is 7cm, although it is also available in a 5cm cheek which has direct and quicker action. Sprenger ask riders to ensure that they measure their horse accurately for a weymouth – it must fit exactly in the horse’s mouth and the cheeks must be close to the side of the horse’s mouth. The choice of bradoon will depend on the horse – but must be ½ - 1cm larger than the weymouth.
The SENSOGAN® HS Weymouth has a discreet and elegant look and due to the material mix, SENSOGAN® does not tarnish easily as the chewing activity of the horse is optimally supported. The bit will stay true to its white gold colour for much longer and can also be polished to a high shine at any point in its lifetime. The new SENSOGAN® range is identified by its unique stamped black ring on the cheeks of the mouthpieces. The cheeks for this new bit can be in either Stainless steel or Aurigan to match the bradoon and metal work on the bridle.
So switch to SENSOGAN® and feel the difference for yourself….
