Exercise it often and keep it moving. Use a lead rope and request the horse walk, cantor, and gallop around an arena without a rider. Saddle it on a regular schedule, ride the horse, and do proper post-riding tasks to care for the horse and prevent skin irritations. When possible and appropriate, let the horse run independently in a fenced meadow or field. Keep your horse interested and prevent excessive boredom. Join a riding class where the horse and you must complete specific "tasks"--it will keep both of you alert and engaged.
