Daisy reins are useful for small children who don't have the upper body strength to outsmart cheeky ponies as they dive for grass. They can be a safety measure to put in place/if/when needed.

We see a lot of grass reins being used in the mini mini groups at our Pony Club. The ponies soon learn not to dive.

If he is pulling down very sharply, ie yanking the reins out of your daughters hands, it would be snatching - snatching the reins off her. Its a very cheeky pony maneuver! ( thats ofc since you have ruled out pain) Possible bit problem: This behavior could indicate that the bit is too narrow for your horse’s level of sensitivity and therefore could be pinching on the corners of his mouth. Bit chomping can also be a sign that the bit doesn’t fit the inside of your horse’s mouth properly.Before you do that though, best to see if there is any other reason why he is snatching. If you have ruled out all pain, and everything fits, see if he would be more comfortable in a different bit or nose band ( what is he in currently?). Then get a really good instructor to watch your daughter ride him and see if she is causing him to object in this way for some reason. I suggest that you also look at a bit that will enable a 'one rein stop' safely without pulling the rings through the ponies mouth. Either a full cheek or tom thumb snaffle or french link.
