What is the word for riding a horse and leading another horse next to you?

Posted on 20 October 2009 at 7:07 pm in Horse Riding Training.

I can’t remember the word for leading an unsaddled, brideled horse next to a riding horse for training and exercise. It’s not lungeing, I know what that is. I want to say trotting but I think that’s wrong. Could someone un-jog my memory? Thanks,

We call it ponying in Polo.

    So if your riding your horse & your holding another horse while riding still riding your horse its called ponying. That other horse can be saddled or, not saddled, with a rider, or without a rider. Doesn’t matter. Hope I helped.
