I really like Fred's bits. I've used them all with handy results. The Fuzz and the colt bit are my least used. I tuned a horse for a friend in the Fuzz. The horse is a hard runner and needed to be reminded of his rate zone. It did that and the horse had no cheat on the shoulder when using the Fuzz bit. It kept him lifted.

I have a finished horse that my 13 year old daughter runs in the "school to win" bit. It works really well for them because it gives her good stopping control and some shoulder lift. He seems to really like the mouth piece.
Edited to also add... She has really light hands but I believe it could be a little harsh if you are heavy handed.
