I'm with the others saying try a bitless for schooling in ur school... How is she in a headcollar when ur on foot? does she respect when u put pressure on her nose? Can always go back to basics with one person riding and one on foot to reinforce the desired response from light pressure to the nose rather than fighting what she already ignores?

if she wants to go in a headcollar there is no pulling her back unless i had the lead rope wrapped round her nose. its what i had to do all winter last year along this one bit of grass track to and from the field. She is very strong and im only little!
i am riding today so am goin to try my drop with the gag and hopefully get one order in, in a bigger size.

The training bit that you put the link to has a port so be careful that thepressure on the roof of the mouth does not encourage her to raise her head.

never thought of that, only reason gone for a port was that she would of probably had one with her driving bit and give her some more room for her tongue.
