I bought my thoroughbred horse from a lady that use to play polocrosse with him and  i broke my ankle playing polocrosse and now I am retraining him for English pleasure and western pleasure and i am using a O Ring Twisted snaffel bit which is helping him calm down alot . He use to be a very “HOT” horse and would love to run but now that i am using this bit on him i was wondering if they would allow me to ride with it in a open hunter pleasure class? This is my horses first show even though i have been showing for years with my I horses but I have never shown in a hunter class. Will I be able to use this bit with my horse for this hunter class? Thanks so very much.
