I am looking for some advice on bits for my 3 year old filly. She is currently ridden in a WTP O-ring Snaffle. She rides okay in it it but can sometimes be more pushy on it then I would like. I would like a step up from this bit that gives her more flex in her neck and that helps lift her shoulder some more. There are so many bits out there I just get overwhelmed!

Offset D smooth snaffle. I would not put anything more than a snaffle on such a young horse.

I agree. Switching the bit also does not always fix the problem. I wouldn't try to get out of a snaffle. There are other ways to get horses to respond or work the way you wish without changing the bit.

if you are having trouble finding it its very very similar to molly powells "rookie" bit and it comes in all types of mouth pieces.
