Big Ring Sweet Iron Gag

The Krono Polo Sweet Iron Barry Gag is a highly specialised bit developed for polo riders seeking maximum responsiveness and refined control during fast, demanding play.

Featuring the distinctive Barry gag mouthpiece combined with a double gag action, it introduces two levels of engagement, allowing for precise and immediate communication. The design reduces the contact surface across the mouth while concentrating pressure in targeted areas, encouraging quicker reactions and sharper responses from the pony.

Crafted in sweet iron, the mouthpiece naturally oxidises to create a slightly sweet taste, promoting salivation and helping the horse remain softer and more accepting of the contact — even when greater control is required.

This bit is particularly effective for strong or heavy ponies, or in situations where responsiveness needs to be sharpened. It is often used as a training or corrective tool to refine reactions and improve overall communication between horse and rider.

While some riders choose to use it consistently, it can also be introduced over short periods to enhance responsiveness before returning to a milder mouthpiece.

Balanced between control, precision, and improved acceptance, the Krono Polo Sweet Iron Barry Gag is designed to meet the specific demands of modern polo.
