However, good contact with the horse&#8217;s mouth is also vital. The right bridle and bit will help you achieve that.<\/strong><\/p><p>If the contact between your hands and the horse&#8217;s mouth is not as good as it could be, you can often see this in the horse\u2019s head and neck posture. If there is too much pressure on the top of your horse\u2019s head, he will shrink away from it. Is the pressure point on the nose? Then the mouth drops to the chest.

This possibly makes it even more important for me to have a well-fitting saddle. Before I met Natalie, I was noticing that Discovery\u2019s back had become extremely sensitive and that he just wasn\u2019t relaxed whenever we were riding. Natalie checked everything and re-padded the saddle.
