Because these bits typically run about 1\/8\" larger than advertised, your horse's standard size (e.g., 5\") will usually provide the necessary clearance for the Independent Side Movement to function correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is the Myler 02 English Dee with Hooks legal for dressage competition?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: While the MB 02 mouthpiece itself is often permitted, the addition of \"hooks\" on the Dee ring generally makes this specific configuration illegal for USEF\/USDF dressage. However, it is an exceptional and widely used choice for Hunters, Jumpers, Eventing, and general schooling where bit rules are more flexible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89-22024\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myler","offers":[{"title":"4.75\"","offer_id":46840726192349,"sku":"89-22024","price":167.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5\"","offer_id":46560646332637,"sku":"89-22025","price":169.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5\"","offer_id":46560646365405,"sku":"89-22027","price":85.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/upscaled-1774907659001.webp?v=1774907659","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/myler-mb-02-comfort-snaffle-english-dee-hooks","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
