Well. . .i have got a horse trial booked for late August.

At the moment he will do a half descent flatwork session in a gag with the reins attaced to the big ring with not much poll pressure so was like a hanging cheek. It has a snaffle mouth piece.

I tried to put him in a snaffle tonight and

he was soooo strong. I have a feeling it might just be because he hasnt been riden in it for a while but im a bit worried. I have got quite a while i suppose untill the actual horse trial so i can keep working him in it but i get so frustrated with him when he just tanks of etc.

I have read up about bits which i am allowed to use and it to me seems like it is snaffle or some types of mylers. I have a bit very similar to the Myler hanging cheek, which he goes very well in but it is not a MYLER one so im not sure if i could use it or not.

Any help on bit types, dressage, etc would be sooo greatful as im feeling a bit stuck

And by te way you might have guessed but im a bit new to the whole side of competing dressage.
 
o a hanging cheek. . . ye that is what i have which im not sure if i could use as it is not a myler. . if i can use that i will be ok (fingers crossed)
 
Would a hanging cheek with a french link be legal as that is what i have as he prefers that mouth piece?

Im a bit happier about htis now
