my horse has a bad habit of lifting his head/nose right up and opening his mouth everytime i ask him to stop or even change pace (slowing down), he's had all the checks done and he does stop but it's like he is saying he doesn't want to stop where i ask him and will even take a couple of paces to let me know.
i've tried him with different bits, nosebands, hackamores and even bitless, he still does it!
normally i wouldn't be bothered but i've been talked into doing a walk trot test and where my aids are concerned that is the one thing he will be marked down alot for!
any ideas??
