When the horse suddenly stops the rider falls forward Explain why?

It is mainly due to inertia of motion (Newton's first law of motion). When the horse is in motion then rider also remains in motion along with the horse. But when the horse suddenly stops, the lower part of the rider comes in the rest along with the horse but his upper part remains in the motion. This is why, he falls forward.
