The Grackle and Mexican noseband are the same thing, they both fall under the heading of Figure-8 nosebands. The difference is in how they are fitted. The basic or 'American or Mexican' Grackle is positioned so that the cheek rings sit high above the cheek bones. While a basic 'English' grackle typically has no rings and sits just below the cheeks. Both work the same way to prevent the horse from crossing it's jaw and getting strong.
