Check the commotion in front of the castle gate

In the center of the screen, you should see a rope around the horse's icon - this is the taming progress indicator. You must reach the point where the entire rope fills up with yellow. If the rope turns completely red or if the taming takes too long, the horse will throw you off. If that happens, you must try again.

It will be easiest to achieve the goal if you position the camera top - down and move the stick in the opposite direction of the horse's movement.
