[endurance] bit placement

Something I've not seen addressed in the bit placement discussion are the
wolf teeth -- if a bit hangs to low in the mouth of a horse that still has
it's wolf teeth the bit can bump and bang these teeth -- the result is
usually a head tosser. Had the vet pop the wolf teeth out of my coming 3
year old before I ever put a bit in his mouth to avoid any discomfort on his
part.
