A cresty neck is typically caused by too much fat in the horses diet, which causes a horses neck to become cresty from storing the fat. To slim this down you should exercise the horse and provide a lower fat diet. However some Mini's are bred to look like miniature Arabians and have a highly arched neck. If that's the case then there is nothing that can be done for it.

How do you teach a horse how to neck rein?
I watched an episode of neck reining on a TV program of mine. I can't really explain it, but I can give an example.For instance, if you wanted your horse to turn left, what you would do first is put pressure on the horse's neck with your right rein. So basically, neck rein it. When the horse doesn't respond, you pick up with your left rein and turn it left. Eventually, after lots of practice, when you put pressure on its neck with the right rein, the horse will automatically think, "Oh, she's about to ask me to turn left," and the horse will turn left on its own.Basically, neck reining can be achieved through patience, time, and repetition. It's best, when trying to teach your horse to do this, to have minimal distractions and the horse's attention focused on you. This helps the horse to catch on quicker.
A small horse?
When a horse is born, it is called a "foal." Then, when it gets a bit older, it is called a "miniature horse." this is the age where you can tell what gender it is. Then, after being a miniature horse it grows into a horse or a pony. Hope I helped!
