a gag. There are many different gags a dutch gag this has a snaffle ring and extra rings underneath the lower you put the reins on the rings the more severe the action. A Cheltenham gag this has special running cheek pieces made of leather or rope that pass through the bit and the reins attach to a ring at the bottom. When you pull on the reins the bit then slides up the cheek pieces and applies pressure to the poll as well as the mouth.
