WTP Dee Eggbutt Snaffle

Lightweight Dee Ring Eggbutt Snaffle

The WTP Lightweight Dee Ring Eggbutt – Normal Plate is rated by riders and trainers as like having power steering.

The bit arms have limited travel, reducing outer ring pressure and helping prevent pain to the cheeks and lips. Because the centre joint sits 14 mm lower than other bits, it helps prevent roof rubbing.

Potential Benefits

According to the manufacturer, WTP bits may:

• Stop the bit pinching the tongue
• Stop the horse getting its tongue over the bit
• Stop the tongue hanging outside the mouth
• Stop the horse pulling or bolting
• Stop the horse hanging and rearing
• Stop the horse headshaking
• Stop displacement of the soft palate
• Stop abnormal respiratory noise
• Provide better oxygen supply, and therefore better speed
• Help prevent bleeding at exercise (EIPH), improve performance and reduce heart rate (manufacturer claims)
• Act as a more effective and kind anti-rearing bit

As each horse is an individual, these effects cannot be guaranteed.
