why do you have a flash on her? they are awful things which have a a fairly severe effect on the horses face and pressure the nerve endings.
As with anyhting if you A: dont know what its called and B: dont know how it works then dont use it! take the flash attachment off and just use as cavesson noseband. please!!!

If she is opening her gob or crossing her jaw then a drop will do a better job but if not she will be fine in the cavesson part of the flash

If she was going well without it why put a flash on her?
Cheers, midori
