Would appreciate any more views pls - for more control/brakes over xc fences.

Pelham with one rein, NS elevator, 3 ring gag, something else? Don't think I could manage 2 reins for jumping/hunting.

Currently in the NS Univerals on the snaffle ring, normal noseband and running martingale for jumping. Tends to shake her head in the Univ on the lower ring.

Doesn't lean or pull. More head up and hollow. Generally got a soft mouth and doesn't bolt away, it's just the speed that gets me. I'd like to take a shorter, quicker holdand a stronger bit might help.

PS Appreciate the need for schooling/lessons - we will do lots of this but am wondering if this might help in the meantime.
 
Bumpity, bump, bump, bump, bump ;)

You are either (1) royally fed up recommending people with bits (2) don't think this is something to address with a stronger bit (I agree to an extent) (3) are enjoying the sunshine (fair enough) (4) I didn't offer any virtual food or drink reward for responses (in which case, I'm just off to the vending machine if you want to get your orders in) or (5) some other reason you're not telling me (why, why, why?).
