Soft mouth on horses?
A soft mouth on a horse refers to the horse being responsive and light to the rider's cues through the reins. It indicates that the horse is not leaning or pulling on the bit, but rather is yielding to gentle pressure. Achieving a soft mouth requires consistent training, proper bit selection, and skilled riding.
What is a bit on a bridle for?
a bit is used to encourage the the horse to turn and to stop - when you pull right the bit pulls in the horse's mouth and it makes him turn right - when you pull back on the reins it puts pressure on the horses mouth and it will stop. Many horses are trained to turn from the feel of the reains or by use of your heels on their sides. So, the bit isn't for turning when the horse has been trained this way.

A metal bit is a piece of equipment used in horse riding that goes in the horse's mouth. It typically consists of a metal bar with rings on either end. The rider uses reins attached to the rings to communicate with the horse by applying pressure to the bit, signaling the horse to turn, stop, or slow down.
Which bit is best for your horse for cross country or fast work he leans on the bit and snatches the reins?
A snaffle bit with a double joint or a bitless bridle could be a good option for your horse during cross country or fast work. These options can provide control while being gentle on the horse's mouth, allowing for more comfort and responsiveness. It's also important to work on developing a softer connection with your horse through training and groundwork exercises to address the leaning and snatching behaviors.
What bit should you use on your pony that leans on the bit?
Training is better than any bit. If I were you, when he started leaning on the bit, I'd let go of the reins so that he has nothing to lean on. Then take the slack back up until he leaned on it again. He'd soon learn that the reins won't support him, and he'll get smart and stop leaning. try a softer better tasting bit, i use a copper french link snaffle mouth :)
