WHAT ELEGANCE GIRTH IS ALL ABOUT
The Elegance girth consists of a small well padded sternum plate, which can be used with 3 different strap options: Soft Straight, Split Soft Straight & H Girth Straps.
The sternum plate is removeable and designed so that it will not impede the fore limbs on narrow chested horses. The elegance sternum plate lifts the girth away from the sternum of the horse so creating a gap either side of the sternum allowing complete freedom of the ascending pectoral muscles which affect fore limb motion and stride length (Not to the same extent as a Free Space Girth).
THE ELEGANCE GIRTH STERNUM:
STERNUM PLATE SHAPE:
The Elegance Sternum Plate is the same width as the H girth Sternum, but the back end is shaped into a point to accommodate the fixing strap. The sternum plate is removeable and designed so that it will not impede the fore limbs on narrow chested horses, the elegance sternum plate lifts the girth away from the sternum of the horse so creating a gap either side of the sternum allowing complete freedom of the ascending pectoral muscles which affect fore limb motion and stride length.

STRAPS:
SOFT STRAIGHT:
The Elegance sternum plate can be used with a Soft Straight girth.
This suits saddles with girth straps that sit parallel and equal to one another when they reach the girth.
Available in lengths of 20″ through to 48".
SPLIT SOFT STRAIGHT:
The Elegance sternum plate can be used with a Split Straight girth.
This suits saddles with girth straps that ascend at an angle, eg in a V. It means the girth straps can fasten in opposing directions.
Available in lengths of 20″ through to 48".
H GIRTH STRAPS:
The Elegance sternum plate can be used with H Girth Straps of unequal length.
This is particularly helpful if you prefer extra shoulder clearance.
With very thin but broad straps the WOW H Girth is designed for horses with a very forward
girth groove where the girth creeps into the elbow.
The soft straps act like a second skin rolling with the skin rather than acting against it.
Available in lengths of 20″ through to 48".

LOOP & D
WITH LOOP & D:
Elegance Sternum Plates do not come with Loop & D attachments, so if you require these for Martingale or Market Harborough fastening, then you must order as a complete girth and select them on your strap component, eg on your Soft Straight Straps.
