My gelding (I've had a month) is a wonderful sweet boy, he has GREAT breaks & a handle... I've been running him in a Perfect Bit with a smooth snaffle dog bone mouth piece... he needs help rating & finishing his 1st but has a beautiful 2nd & 3rd, just gotta drive past & pick him up....
the bit im running him in, when I pull to finish at the first, he pulls his head, up away & turns his nose out but is fine at 2 & 3...
ive had his teeth done so I know that's not it... what bit would you suggest? I feel like something with a little gag would help him bend & flex more...

Have you had a Chiro look at him and vet check his hocks? May not be teeth/bit related at all, especially since it's only turning 1 direction

O-Ring Snaffle (if he has great breaks and handle).
