What is the best thing to use to slow down your horse and keep them collected?

I think pull the rope back. A noseband or martingale should not be used to substitue training. You need to train the horse to be collected. Light pressure pulling back while tapping your legs against the horses sides is the cue I use. By pulling back, I look for the horse to bend at the poll, which will make him round up, and by tapping my legs on him, I am saying, keep going. Eventually, you can just tap your legs on his side to get him to collect.

How many legs does a horse?

Horses only have four legs... so if you meant to ask "why do horses have four legs" then the answer would be that four legs fit the horses needs the most, for example six legs would make it hard to turn and would make the horse too long. But in the same way two legs wouldn't be enough because the horse would have to stand on its hind legs and since it wasn't made for two legs the horse wouldn't be able to stand up and would fall over.
