You tack the horse up, but rather than mounting, you clip two long rope to each side of the bit, slide the ropes through the stirrups, and then walk behind the horse and begin teaching it to respond to your cues, even when he can't see you. Most of the time you use a verbal cue to get them to walk or speed up, and then use the rope as if they were reins to turn and stop the horse.
