Just a quick thing really...and probably something I should know (but I don't).
I have a little local clear round SJ thing coming up on Dec 3rd (it's for charity so I'm not going all out competitive) and I have started to do a little jumping here and there with Charlie...although the ground's been so wet I have to be careful.
Anyway...point of my post is. Charlie is a rusher. He charges for the jumps before I can stop him, and when I do try to stop him he fights me and gets wound up. He's only in a regular snaffle and I loan him so I don't know what the lady I loan him from would think of a different bit (although she might see my point).
Does anyone have any advice on how I can stop the rushing? I can consider changing bits if there's one anyone thinks would help? Any advice is appreciated!
