When I have to ride a horse that is headstrong I allways just keep a bit more feel on the rein, not too much, but just enough that they know you are there. If you are say cantering and they start to pull the reins you can a) cercle him/.her to make them bend a bit, this usaly stops them from pulling, just try to keep the bend or b) sit strong in the saddle and make themn go a bit forward. Sometimes it is just cause the horse is fresh and wants to go faster,I allways let them pick up the pass a bit and make them keep it, I mean they were the ones who wanted to go faster in the first place.
