Loose Ring Breaking Snaffle Bit

Loose Ring Breaking Snaffle Bit the loose ring mouthing bits are a bit used to mouth young horses. The straight solid mouthpiece is smooth one side, and ridged the other and can be used either way around. The ridged side acts more on the bars, so it is far more usual to start youngsters off with the kinder, smooth side against the bars of the mouth. In the centre of the mouthing bit, there is a set of 'keys' that encourage the horse to play with them and thus produce a soft, wet mouth.
