When we bought my daughters horse, they sent his bits with him. I like one of them but he runs through it when we send him hard. The other one works to check him at the first barrel but everyone once in a while he panics when he hits it. The picture shows the shank but the mouth piece looks like the other one. I am not a fan of this bit at all but want to know what it is and possible other options that work similar to this. Suggestions? TIA!

I have a bit exactly like this and it's called a Rosie Gag 1/4" Sweet Iron Ported Bradoon Bit. "A low leverage gag excellent for horses with a lot of natural rate. An excellent mouthpiece for lifting your horse's head and tucking his head at the same time. 6" Cheeks, 5" Mouth"
Found the bit on this page. http://www.culturedcowboy.com/bits/pages/bit08.html
