All is good with the bit and my sister is changing to a narrower one. It bothered me a lot, because my sister has a "trainer " who did not notice or mention this. Other things that the trainer recommends are excellent though, so I suppose it is a trade off. My sister lives in England and has I think 5 horses all Welsh Cobs. I live in the USA and have three horses. Two are not ridden. One is. My sister and I communicate via Skype every Sunday at 10:30 am. We have a great time and talk for at least an hour, sometimes two. We are identical twins, and my husband tells other people that it is like looking in a mirror  for each of us when we are on Skype.
