Bucas Quarter Sheet and Therapy Quarter Sheet
The Bucas Quarter Sheet is the ideal light weight and durable all weather exercise rug which fits perfectly over the back behind the saddle to keep the horse warm and dry while exercising.
It is also available as a Therapy Quarter Sheet which helps to stimulates blood circulation and oxygen flow in the horse’s body and back. This helps heal and reduce both swelling and inflammation and helps increase blood circulation and warms up muscles faster while you ride.
Bitting the Youngster with the Sprenger Dynamic RS Full Cheek Bit
Sprenger Dynamic RS bits are characterised by an ergonomically shaped mouthpiece allowing a soft and even distribution of pressure for a better contact between horse and rider. 
The Dynamic RS Full Cheek bit lies very quietly in the horse’s mouth as the cheeks prevent the bit from being pulled through the mouth, making it ideal for the young horse. It avoids inconvenient pressure on the back teeth.
Due to the curved joints, the mouthpiece remains in the correct central position on the tongue, letting the rein aids work perfectly with the horse’s mouth and therefore encouraging the horse’s confidence in the rider’s hand and increasing safety.
