Best Answer

A rider who has a balanced seat and good equitation should not have an issue if their horse trips unexpectedly. Good posture, a correct and deep seat with the heels down should keep the rider balanced even if the horse trips. If the horse trips badly and unbalances the rider significantly, the rider may brace themselves with a hand on the horses mane or the saddle horn (if riding western).

Is there something wrong with your horses back feet if she trips a lot?

yes i have a horse that trips a lot and she drags her rite back foot. if it is a young horse it is propabably just not very balanced, she may not have enough muscle to help support herself, this doesnt mean that she will fall other, just that she needs more muscle and balance - which will come with age.
