While galloping a horse how can you keep control and not let him take off on you?
Shana4t5
To prevent a horse from 'taking off on you', you should sit back on the seat, make sure your heels are down in the stirrups and shorten you reins, never pull the reins back far enough so that your elbows elongate further than your body.

What could you do if a horse reared on you while you were riding it?
Kick your feet out of the sturips, slide off the horses butt to one side, with the rengs pull the horse all the way over, then sit on the horses head. You can keep the horse down on the ground because a horse has to lift its head before it can get up. They don't like to be held down, One application is often all it takes! ---- When a horse rears, often times it is because they are frightened. They don't normally rear out of defiance towards the rider. When riding a horse you want to try and stay on. You have a better chance at gaining control from the saddle than on the ground. In order to keep yourself mounted on a horse while it rears, lean forward slightly to try and promote balance for your horse. Remember that they are animals built for four feet and standing on their hindquarters is tough for them. That being said, a horse can actually flip itself backwards when rearing. If you feel like this could be a possibility or you do not feel comfortable on a rearing horse, simply take your feet out of the stirrups and do an emergency dismount. Do not pull on the horse's mouth; this hurts them. Do what you need to to keep you and your horse safe.
