Hanging Cheek Mullen Mouth

[Helga1980]

Does anyone know of anywhere that does one of these?? Myler was planning to 'release' a version in the summer but it hasn't appears yet.

Friend is looking for one for her boy after trainer suggested he needed a mullen mouth with poll action.

Otherwise, anyone got any other suggestions, he goes (very happily) in a pelham but she is looking for a dressage legal bit. Must be a mullen mouth as is has a fat tongue and hates the nutcracker action!!

Mullen mouth with full cheeks? If you use keepers the full cheek will give some poll pressure, in fact I'm told it gives slightly more pressure than a hanging cheek.

Thanks - sounds like a possibility.

I have a 5in mullen mouth hanging cheek if you are interested, My fussy mare didn't take to it she only likes happy mouth! otherwise they are made by abbey bits- but are a bit on the pricey side at over £30 I think.

Thanks, sadly Archie takes a 5.5 (and thats only just!) so you're bit would be to small. Will try Abbey Bits though.

Helga whereabouts in S Wales are you? I have a 5.5" Myler mullen mouth full cheek - you can't have it cos I use it but if you're very close to me you could maybe try it. Mylers do come up big though so it's more like a 5.75"-6".

Thanks for the offer Nari, the horses are kept in Dinas Powys.

I think A's managed to find something suitable at Abbey Bits that someone else posted about though so there mightn't be as much of a need now.
