An eggbut and a snaffle??

I've been told to use an eggbut on my horse as the snaffle he has is pinching the side of this mouth. It's 5.5" the right size but he sucks it up into his mouth, (if that makes sence) it's the right hight as I was told some horses will do this if it's too low and hitting their teeth. But any higher and it'll be pulling this mouth, also RI had a look and said yes right size and yes right hight (forgot to ask her what the difference is) He doesn't do it all the time just some of the time.


This is the bit he has an the min http://www.rideaway.co.uk/cottage-craft-lw-hollowmouth-snaffle/default.aspx
