HUGE best-seller! Our 3-in-1 Training Breastplate has helped many riders worldwide of all levels and backgrounds. From learning to balance while posting the trot to helping riders establish a correct and direct connection to the horse's mouth. This training aid helps riders and horses fix MANY issues with just one piece of equipment!
The T-Grips attached to the breastplate limit the amount the rider can pull back while connecting the hands in a straight line from the bit to the elbow. This encourages a softer elbow and a more relaxed connection. Horses tend to be more uphill in a more correct carriage when ridden in this aid.
This3-in-1 Training Breastplate does not rely on leverage and is not a shortcut. It does not force a horse's head into a locked position but instead helps the RIDER find the correct forward feeling of riding a horse into the contact.
This aid helpsfix common faults of:
- Widening and lowering the hands to pull the horse's head down.
- Hanging onto the horse's mouth for balance
- Catching the horse's mouth on the backside of a jump.
- Pulling on the inside rein to turn.
- Locked elbows.
Correct Connect’s™ 3-in-1breastplate combines stunning craftsmanship with the practical functionality of using it as a plain breastplate, with a neck strap, or with its unique training attachment.Adjustable leather and elastic breastplate attaches to the D-Rings for saddle stability allows for freedom of movement in the shoulder.
- Rubber lined Leather Attachable neck strap to conform to FEI neck strap rule.
- Loop to attach standing or running martingale.
- Fully adjustable and detachable leather T grips to help riders learn hand position stability and understand the horses seeking reflex to ride forward to the bridle. Great for dressage and jumping!
- Available in black or brown.
- Consider warming your horse up before using the t-grips and make sure they are loose enough to keep from restricting your arms too much.
- We recommend using under the watchful eye of a qualified instructor for best results!
How To Measure Your Breastplate:
Using a measuring tape, measure from D-Ring to D-Ring around the horse's chest. Measurements can be a little loose as you do not want the breastplate too tight and the T-Grips should not be too low.
Pony: 40"-49" or 102cm-124.5cm
Full- 49"-62" or 102cm-158cm
Extra full- 58"-66"or 147cm-168cm
Fitting Instructions:
1. The collar should fit softly around the base of the neck and attach to the D-Rings of the saddle.
2. Toggles can attach to one of two rings on the collar based on horse size.
3. To help the horse seek the contact, gently lift up against the horse's neck.
4. Most riders prefer to hold the toggle between their middle and ring finger with their reins held normally between the ring and little finger.

Excellent product, not perfect fit for me
Love the training breast plate, however, it doesn’t fit my horse very well… Too many parts to hold. Excellent product for someone who really needs that connection however, not working well for me…

Runs small
It runs very small. Order a size up! I love the toggles for myself, but when having a beginner who was prone to getting frustrated and jerking the reins try to use them, they were too difficult for him to manage together with the reins. Unfortunately I had really hoped they would enable him to develop better-steady-confident connection, but being a beginner it was almost like giving him a second set of reins in terms of how competent he was to manage with the toggles.
Hi Renee, we would be interested to see how you have this fitted. This has fit horses from 14.0- 17 hands depending on their build and we would not recommend an extra full unless you have a very large horse. Please feel free to send us any pictures.
We also recommend lungeing beginner riders without reins to get the used to the feel. It's a great tool to help them get their balance without pulling on the horse. Keep an eye for for a slimmer t grip that we are designing as well. That may your beginner riders. Thank you!

3 in 1 breastplate
I really like the 3 in 1 for ny young horse. I get stability in my hands with out pulling on the reins when she spooks.
I have added a delta between the handles which I missed so now it is fine

Huge Difference
This has really helped my young daughter find the proper connection with the reins and to open & close her elbows instead of keeping them locked.
