BC45 Petros Loose Ring Eggbutt

The Bombers Control Plate (BC45 Petros Loose Ring Eggbutt) is set at 45° to follow the contour of the horses tongue. Consequently, a horse that uses his tongue as a means of pushing against the bit and therefore taking control will draw back and tuck his chin in, coming back to a better point of control. This differs from a Dr Bristol which sits horizontally with the edge of the plate on the tongue.

The Petros mouthpieces rotate preventing the horse taking hold of the bit and can be combined with any 3-piece bit.  Often good for a horse that leans or tries to take hold of the bit.

The Eggbutt Loose Ring prevents pinching of the lips and gives a slightly more solid feel against the side of the face. It also prevents the bit being pulled through the mouth. The Eggbutt Loose Ring provides the quick release of a Loose Ring.

All our bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:

oxidises easily
encourages salivation
helps bit acceptance
is warm and sweet

Please note the blue will fade with use.
