Excerpt from The "ABC" Of Riding to Hounds

Before mounting, examine your girths, which in the case of a side saddle should be further tightened after the rider is seated. Also notice carefully your bits, to see that they hang sufficiently low in the horse's mouth to bear against the bars of his jaw and not against his cheeks. Most horses are over bitted either in weight or severity. Look especially at the throat latch, which can hardly be too loose. If tight, it will not only distress your horse, but in extreme cases, cause a rush of blood to his head.
