PROCESS OF CAUSING A HORSE TO LAY DOWN
Approach him gently upon the left side, fasten a strap around the ankle of his fore-foot; then raise the foot gently, so as to bring the knee against the breast and the foot against the belly. The leg being in this position, fasten the strap around his arm, which will effectually prevent him from putting that foot to the ground again. Then fasten a strap around the opposite leg, and bring it over his shoulder, on the left side, so that you can catch hold of it; then push these gently, and when he goes to fall, pull the strap, which will bring him on his knees.
Now commence patting him under the belly; by continuing your gentle strokes upon the belly, you will, in a few minutes, bring him to his knees behind. Continue the process, and he will lie entirely down, and submit himself wholly to your treatment. By thus proceeding gently, you may handle his feet and legs in any way you choose.
However wild and fractious a horse may be naturally, after practicing this process a few times, you will find him perfectly gentle and submissive, and even disposed to follow you anywhere, and unwilling to leave you on any occasion.
Unless the horse be wild, the first treatment will be all sufficient; but should he be too fractious to be approached in a manner necessary to perform the first named operation, this you will find effectual, and you may then train your horse to harness or anything else with the utmost ease.
In breaking horses for harness, after giving the powders, put the harness on gently, without startling him, and pat him gently, then fasten the chain to a log, which he will draw for an indefinite length of time. When you find him sufficiently gentle, place him to a wagon or other vehicle.
NOTE--Be extremely careful in catching a horse, not to affright him. After he is caught, and the powders given, rub him gently on the head, neck, back and legs, and on each side of the eyes, the way the hair lies, but be very careful not to whip, for a young horse is equally passionate with yourself, and this pernicious practice has ruined many fine and valuable horses.
When you are riding a colt (or even an old horse), do not whip him if he scares, but draw the bridle, so that his eye may rest upon the object which has affrighted him, and pat him upon the neck as you approach it; by this means you will pacify him, and render him less liable to start in future.

This is the system by which Prof. Carroll was able to "cure the most vicious horses of the habit of balking or kicking; also the habits of shying, running away, pulling at the halter, jumping fences or pitching under the saddle. It will enable anyone to ride any horse or mule without saddle or bridle with perfect safety; also to drive without bridle or lines."

How to manage a wild or vicious horse and even those that are quite old before they are first handled.

How to gain the confidence of a horse so "as long as you are with him he feels no fear."
How to cure a horse of jumping and fence breaking so thoroughly that he will happily stay in almost any kind of enclosure.
Secret ways of "jockeying" a horse to make him appear to be other than what he is, eg. blind, lame, sick, unwilling eat or drink and how to remove a brand.
And so much more!
In a nutshell, this short but valuable ebook details an ingenious system to cure a horse of bad habits and compel it to do your bidding by using the horses own anatomy and instinctive movements against itself to amazing effect.
And all this is done using simple rigs of ropes, straps and other basic items - you don't need any fancy equipment!
The value of this book is such that I was hesitant to give it away. I initially intended to sell this book on its own and reserve the right to do just that at ANY time - so act now, while it's still free with Horse Training Secrets Revealed!
Take care and happy trails!
