Description
The Lorina French Link Eggbutt Bradoon is a snaffle-style bit designed for horses that are sensitive to the nutcracker action of a single-jointed bit. The French link lays across the horse's tongue and bars, distributing pressure more evenly. Available in six sizes from 4 inch (102mm) to 5.5 inch (140mm), it is suitable for use as a snaffle or in a double bridle where permitted, including dressage competitions. The smaller eggbutt ring also makes it a practical choice as a snaffle for ponies.
- The French link lays across the horse's tongue and bars, which is ideal for horses which do not like the nutcracker action.
- Can be used in dressage competitions when used as a snaffle, or in the double where permitted.
- Also ideal to use as a snaffle for ponies as the ring is smaller than a traditional loose ring snaffle.

Why is a French link preferred for horses that dislike a nutcracker action?
The French link lays across the horse's tongue and bars rather than folding and pinching as a single-jointed bit can. This distributes pressure more evenly and avoids the nutcracker action that some horses find uncomfortable.
Can this bradoon be used in dressage competitions?
Yes. It can be used in dressage competitions when used as a snaffle, or in the double bridle where permitted by the relevant rules.
Why is this bit described as suitable for ponies?
The eggbutt ring on this bradoon is smaller than that of a traditional loose ring snaffle, making it a practical snaffle choice for ponies.
