I use them on every horse from the intermediate event horses (both TBs) to the greenbean babies (Tbs and an appy stallion) Occasionally if I need a little more I'll use a slow twist eggbutt.

Not that he's "green" in the traditional sense, but that steering might not be fully installed at first and I like the gentle leverage of the full cheek. Riley seems to really like and respect it, and I ride him in an egg butt XC (for now)Niamhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12445287419135378606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-515433034811637938.post-35394900123576217612013-05-07T11:44:56.068-05:002013-05-07T11:44:56.068-05:00I use a french link loose ring snaffle on Dandy th...I use a french link loose ring snaffle on Dandy that he does well in. It's my go to for most horses but not everyone likes them. You've got so many to play around with, I expect you'll find the best one before long.

My TB Dawn and Red are both comfortable in a simple single-jointed Mylar D - from the horse's point of view there's very little difference between a D and a full cheek. Pie, who has a very large tongue plus a low palate, is in a KK with a lozenge. Some horses prefer the comfort snaffle - it's a little more stable in the mouth, put can put pressure on the tongue that some horses don't like. The lozenge bit is more moveable, and some horses like it and some don't.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
