Continental 2 Ring Jointed Snaffle (Gag)  Bit 14.5,15.5 cm

The 3 ring continental jointed snaffle bit is sometimes known as a 2 ring, dutch gag.

Continental gag bits work by raising the bit up in the horses mouth in a similar manor to a conventional gag, but there is a limit to the extent this can happen thus lessening the severity. In addition to this, a lot of poll pressure is easily achieved on the lower setting of the dutch gag which is why ideally two reins should be used to ensure a correct contact can be maintained on the snaffle rein without poll pressure.
