If you’re a trainer or rider dealing with horses that lug, hang, pull, or fight the bit, you know the toll it can take—on performance, on safety, and on your horse’s overall welfare. Add breathing challenges like soft palate displacement, and the stakes get even higher.
That’s where the NEW WTP Lugging Bit comes in—a revolutionary, patented design that offers a humane and effective alternative to tongue ties and harsh bits. Whether you’re training gallopers, pacers or trotters, this bit is delivering real results for horses who need serious tongue and lugging correction—without sacrificing comfort or compliance.

I’m really terrible at talking about our awesome WTP Bits but they continue to blow me away!
I had some awesome feedback from hunter_road_stables
“Really good and have been using it on some of our tbs for retraining. Love the bigger D for a bit of help with initial steering!
We are running an education night next week re for the 6 weeks of a horse off the track and have added it to my top 3 bits to start with!”!

We are pleased to share that the confusion around the WTP Bit with Brakes and the Bit With Brakes Ring Bit NP and EP for racing has been cleared and they are legal for use. They will be added to the gear list following the Australian standards.
