The Hanging mouth jointed snaffle is also referred to as a filet Baucher bit. The cheek of a hanging cheek bit is similar to the top section of a pelham and exerts a little poll pressure which can help reluctant horses to break at the poll and flex more readily. One of the ‘stronger’ dressage legal bits, the hanging cheek snaffle has a jointed mouthpiece that acts like a nutcracker on the bars, and will often contact with the horse’s palate. An ideal bit to use in a dressage test for horses used to being ridden in a jointed pelham or jointed continental bit.
