Neither a snaffle nor a flash is a bridle. A snaffle is a bit and a flash is a noseband or cavison.

A flash is worn lower on the nose and is used to prevent the horse from opening his mouth and 'avoiding' the bit and/or making the bit more effective.
What tipe of horse bit will give your horse a quicker response to your command?
Hi It depends what you want your horse to do. If you arte having trouble stopping and your horse has a plain snaffle you could try a 3 ring snaffle on the lower rings or a dutch gag. For dressage a doiuble bridle is allowed in certain levels but a french link snaffle or and eggbutt snaffle would be better if not a double. Hope this helps.

Does the snaffle bridle hold the horse's head high?
The snaffle is a bit, not a bridle, and it is very gentle, i don't think it holds the horses head high, your hands shouldn't eaither, lifting the horses rib cage with your legs should bring the horses head up not your hands. (this is a lot better for the horse, and it will make your rid ebetter too)
