This bit did what I was looking for in a new bit. As Hugo is a thoroughbred he is naturally built downhill and struggles to lift himself up onto his hinds without overbending. I found that the double locking system gave a correct and even tongue pressure even when the reins were taken up. I found this particularly good for Hugo as he is very sensitive in the mouth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#e0b57c\">What was your favourite feature?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;I really like that the bit is coated in sweet iron. I found that as the bit stared to rust with use, Hugo would accept it more and settle into his contact easier.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6261\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized-.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/?attachment_id=6261\" class=\"wp-image-6261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized--370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-4-sized-.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6260\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized-.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/?attachment_id=6260\" class=\"wp-image-6260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized--370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/09\/Pic-3-sized-.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n<div style=\"gap: 20px;\" class=\"align-button-center ub-buttons orientation-button-row ub-flex-wrap wp-block-ub-button\" id=\"ub-button-9a12864b-5779-4cf4-8fe1-e78f895af63c\"><div class=\"ub-button-container\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redpostequestrian.co.uk\/saddlery-tack\/bits\/bombers-lock-up-loose-ring-bit__189536\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"ub-button-block-main   ub-button-flex\" role=\"button\" style=\"--ub-button-background-color: #3b3b3b;
