Why the white stuff in the mouth? Do you ride? Apparently not, I'll assume or hope. It's called foam, it's created when the horse salivates and accepts the bit and is working with a nice supple mouth. You should see the same "Foam" between the hind legs as well, means they are engaged. Interesting remark after "Irish Style of Riding".
