I'm trying to get my horse rounded and on the bit.
So far, he really doesn't care and he thinks it's the stupidest idea he's ever heard of. Once I've got him into "work" mode though, he's really wonderful about working his hind end and bringing his head down.
However, when I ask him to trot, the head goes flying up again. I've had a vet check and there's nothing wrong with him or his tack. So, is it possible that he doesn't like the bit? And if so, what bit would you reccomend? He's a really easy going, young horse and I don't want to put anything too harsh in his mouth. I have him on a D ring with copper rollers right now.

Any help is appreciated. =]
