Copper Roller D Ring Snaffle

The Lorina Copper Roller D Ring Snaffle is a stainless steel and copper bit with rollers that help to prevent a horse from 'grabbing' it. The combination of metals increases salivation and creates a softer mouth than with a single-metal bit. It is designed to act on the tongue, roof and bars of the mouth, while the single joint creates a nutcracker action that can help to raise the horse's head. The D rings offer improved steering, although not as much guidance as a full-cheek bit. This bit is not suitable for young or novice horses, as it does not encourage them to take a contact. It is popular with horses that become strong and heavy in the hand, and is used by eventers and showjumpers.
