Hello,
I'm just wondering if you could offer me a bit of advice,
I'm currently working abroad on a yard and have a limited supply of bits.
Im riding a young horse who is a bit strong and un responsive in a snaffle, other than snaffles we have running gags or American gags and a tom thumb.
I don't want to over bit the youngster, is the tom thumb able to be used with the reins attached to the snaffle ring?
Thinking this would be only a small step up from the snaffle.
He's had all checks done and is mainly strong I to a fence, is very plesent the rest of the time.
I'm here to get him jumping so would just like a little bit more adjustment going into a fence.
Thank you for any help
