The normal comfort snaffle is legal but unfortunately not the ported one (shame because Jim likes that one). Also the single joint & mullen mouth are allowed.

You can't use any of them if there are slots in the sides.
 
This might help.... taken from http://www.bitworld.co.uk/products.htm


The following Mylers are now legal for Dressage:

O2 - Comfort snaffle with NO hooks
The comfort snaffle has a barrel in the centre limiting the nutcracker action. Available in an Eggbutt, Full Cheek and the Loose ring. For into be dressage legal remember to ask for the bit to have plain rings i.e. no slots. The Dressage board have relaxed the mixed metal rule as these bits all come with the copper strips.

O32 - Mullen Barrel with NO hooks
This is a Mullen mouth with no nutcracker action. These bits still have the independent action. Again available in Eggbutt and Full Cheek.

O9 - Single Jointed
A very popular bit. This bit comes with a shaped mouth piece with a small joint in the centre which allows the tongue more freedom. Available in Full cheek and Eggbutt.

O10 - French Link
A basic shaped French Link bit. Available in Loose ring, Eggbutt and Full Cheek. Remember though to make sure that if you have one of the earlier O10 , to have the link the correct way up.

New to the Myler range are 6" bits. At the moment these are only available in certain styles.

New for 2006
Arriving shortly are Dressage legal Hanging cheeks in both the comfort and the mullen barrell style.

The 02 is no longer available in the fulmer.
The 09 is tricky to get hold of in this country.
The 10 is only available in a loose ring.
