I’ve been riding my 4 year old in a knock off Loomis with a smooth mouthpiece. I love the way she works in it but when I ask her for speed on the pattern she has trouble straightening out when leaving her turns. At first I thought it was me holding onto her but she even does it when I’ve completely given her head back. What would be the next bit to go to? She is pretty light in the mouth. I have rode her one time in a tender touch and she seemed to like that, but I’m not sure if it’s the right fit. TIA

  try just a simple gag type bit with the same mouthpiece. Like ed Wright or Molly Powell rookie bit

If you like the draw bit, maybe try one with a noseband?? I have one with a noseband and use it when I feel they get too bendy.

You could try a Carol Goosetree. I love the feel of those. I also agree with the noseband. That tends to straighten one out pretty quickly if you like her in the draw bit.

My go to after a draw gag is a dave elliot spur up 04, a simplicity would be very similar!
