TRUST Inno Sense gags pair a kind, tongue-friendly synthetic mouthpiece with a cheek design that adds lift and a measure of poll pressure for educated hands. You get clearer half-halts and better balance for forward horses while maintaining a soft, consistent feel.
Gag cheeks route the rein to create upward lift at the mouth corners plus some poll influence via the crownpiece. Used correctly, this helps rebalance the frame without resorting to stronger hand pressure—useful when horses get long or heavy between fences or in the open.
Flexi Soft offers the warmest, most forgiving feel; Medium adds stability; Hard is the firmest for more defined feedback. A straight Mullen spreads pressure evenly, while a Port adds tongue room for horses that press or show sensitivity.
Two reins (main ring + gag ring) provide the most finesse; a single rein on the lower ring delivers a clearer lift with less nuance. Bit converters are an option but simplify the feel. Choose the mildest setup that yields steady, reliable responses.
Measure width between the inside edges of the rings/cheeks with slight clearance at the lips. Ensure cheek pieces and gag guides move freely and the bit sits quietly. Match thickness and flexibility to palate height and tongue volume.
Rinse after riding, clean gently with mild soap, and avoid abrasives or high heat. Inspect the synthetic surface for tooth marks, check any core/attachments, and replace if the mouthpiece shows damage.
Shop our TRUST Inno Sense gags in Flexi Soft, Medium, and Hard with Mullen or Port options—designed for lift, balance, and a kinder mouthfeel.
When is an Inno Sense gag a good choice?
When you need a touch more lift and balance for forward or heavy horses, while keeping a soft, tongue-friendly mouthpiece that many horses accept quickly.
One rein or two on a gag?
Two reins (main ring plus gag ring) give the most finesse. A single rein on the lower ring increases effect but reduces nuance. Use the mildest setup that maintains consistent responses.
Which mouthpiece should I choose—Mullen or Port?
Mullen spreads pressure evenly for a quiet, steady connection; a Port offers tongue relief for horses that press or show tongue sensitivity. Select the lightest option that preserves relaxed, elastic contact.
Are gag bits allowed in competition?
Often in certain classes, but it depends on your federation and discipline. Check current rules (e.g., USEF/FEI) before you compete.
