I think it depends on the horse. I was never able to make a dropped noseband fit Hreggur properly. It always moved down onto the cartilage in spite of how I had placed it originally, it would always slip during a ride. I finally tossed it. That was my only experience with dropped nosebands. We haven't started any of the rest of ours with them. Wanda
