Episode Description from the Publisher

Trail riding can reveal a lot about how well a horse handles change, pressure and the presence of other horses. In this episode, Mark answers member questions about preparing horses for unfamiliar trail situations, riding safely in groups, and why some horses become unsettled when they are asked to ride at the back. Learn about how horses process their surroundings and how riders can use education to improve challenges before they become problems on the trail. Mark also addresses how to improve rein responsiveness in a large horse that is hard to stop.
