Mocha has been so calm about meeting her curb bit that today, after a
brief consult with Gregg, I decided it was time to climb into the
saddle and try it out.

Hi Joyce,

Sorry if I missed this earlier -- what are the advantages you or your
trainer feels to using the curb? Why not just stick with the snaffle? (I'm
assuming the curb is the one with the chain on the bottom.)

TIA.
