Lorina Loop Ring Snaffle

The Perfect Bridge Between a Snaffle and a Curb

The Lorina Loop Ring Snaffle (often referred to as a Wilkie Snaffle) is a highly effective bit designed for horses that need a little more “point” than a standard loose ring, without the severity of a long-shanked lever bit. It is a staple in the show ring and a favorite for ponies who can be a bit strong for their riders.

Key Features

  • Enhanced Control: The unique internal “loops” for the cheekpieces and reins create a mild lever effect, encouraging the horse to tuck their nose and remain light in the hand.

  • High-Quality Stainless Steel: Constructed from premium, hand-polished stainless steel for maximum durability, rust resistance, and a smooth finish that’s gentle on the mouth.

  • Jointed Mouthpiece: The single-jointed design applies nutcracker pressure to the bars and tongue, providing clear communication and discouraging leaning.

  • Show Ring Legal: Its neat, compact appearance makes it an ideal choice for showing, particularly in lead-rein or first-ridden classes where subtle control is required.

Why Choose the Loop Ring?

Unlike a traditional continental bit, the Loop Ring Snaffle offers a much more subtle poll pressure. It’s the go-to solution for:

  • Strong Ponies: Provides that extra bit of “brakes” for younger riders.

  • Lifting the Front End: Helps horses that tend to get heavy on the forehand.

  • Transitioning: Perfect for horses moving up from a basic snaffle who aren’t quite ready for a pelham or gag.

Pro Tip: Ensure the bit is fitted with enough clearance to prevent the loops from pinching the corners of the lips. When fitted correctly, it should sit snugly without causing wrinkles in the skin.
