enjoyed your comment on flighty polish arabs, have a fadwur ibyn fadwur etc
some nazeer(thank god) champion air-head. have had 10 years of fllights,
stiches and nickname "CRASH". main problem is can't stop him. have gone
through al the snaffle s, tom thumb, rio's brake, tellington jones, german
martingale, st. martingale , tie down, dropped nose band, curb cricket and
even put big rubber disks on right side of bit where he pulls all bits into
his mouth to hold bit and get control. headstall is up as tight as it can
be. he just worked the disks into his mouth, also. very competitive and wants
to be in front. listens well to me when we ride alone. scary to be heading
for a cattle guard, etc. at fast speed. any suggestions? I'll try anythihg
(already have). Can,t wait for reply. also, orthoflex neo girth rubbed a
little when dry but a touch a vegetable oil on girth worked until horse got
sweeaty then girth didn't chaffe after that.
