When training a horse, you wanna tie a knot that is tighter but will give. but if you are talking about a trained horse, you should be able to just tie it loose. so if the horse does spook it can get away. because if the horse does spook and cannot get away, the horse will go into flight mood and will more than likely break the halter of lead and run for a long time; where as if the horse can get away he/she might run away from the post, but will more than likely stop before he/she gets to far. u should tie your horse up with a quick release knot

Should you tie a horse to a post tight or not?
Don't. If the horse spooks, the lead rope will not come loose. Many horses will then rear when they find that they can't escape. Often, the halter will break, but if not, your horse will be seriously hurt. Always use a slip knot to tie your horse, or if you have to, use a break away halter. Also, never leave your horse alone while tied.
