Best bit for youngster?

[horsesatemymoney]

What bit would people recommend for bitting a youngster, for nothing else other than getting them used to it and eventually long-reining?

I've always started with a loose ring french link

I like happy mouth bits as they are warm and inviting

Happy mouth straight bars have always been my favourite. Loose ringed, gives a bit of 'give', so that they're not so harsh in the mouth. Great for long reining too.

My youngster has taken really well to a loose ring sweet iron french link.

i started my lad in a happy mouth straight bar loose ring. Then progressed to a copper mouth french link full cheek.
