Several problems. The geldings are skittish. They get nervous in the stadium, and there is no way to control them. If you noticed they tried to get the geldings to kneel with the players when they were praying after running on the field. They refused to kneel. If you only had a bit in their mouths you could not control them and they could injure someone. That is also another reason they went up the ramp when teams were playing toward the South endzone as the geldings got jittery.
