Go to the stables the guards mentioned. You will meet your partners and Tavish Gray there.
Tavish wants you to steal horses from Braithwaite stables. He claims that if you take these horses to the merchants in Clemens Cove then you will get a lot of cash from them.
To get back at the Braithwaites, Tavish Gray asks Arthur, John and Javier to steal prized horses from Braithwaite Manor that he claims will sell for $5000.
Together with John and Javier, go to the Braithwaite Manor. Along the way, you will be stopped by a guard at one of the gates. After a while he will let you enter the property after John introduces you as merchants interested in buying horses.
Shortly after that you will reach the stables located near the lake and get off your horses.
Go to the stablehand standing outside the stable and talk to him. You will convince him to show you the horses and together you will enter the stable stables.
One of the requirements for a gold medal is that you quietly kill a stablehand when he shows you the horses. Go behind him and kill him. You have plenty of time for that, but if you don't make it in time, Javier will do it instead.
When you do this, put on a disquise so you don't get recognized.
Approach the white horse in the middle, calm it down, then lead it out of the stable and approach the place where your horses are standing.
When you are almost ready to leave, you will be spotted by someone and the guards will start shooting at you. Your partners will move forward and you will cover the back.
Follow John and Javier and eliminate the guards who will try to stop you or chase you. Remember that one of the requirements to win a gold medal is to score 5 headshots.
When you pass the fields, a small forest, and get rid of the last guards chasing you, one of the horses, a black stallion will start to kick and after a while he will free himself and start to run away.
One of the requirements for the gold medal is to lasso this horse in just 10 seconds, so as soon as you notice that the horse starts to kick, draw out the lasso and as soon as the horse gets free, use the lasso to catch it before it gets too far away. Using Dead Eye will be very helpful at this moment.
Once it's lassoed, lead it back to your partners waiting for you near Clemens Cove.
Together, drive up to the nearby horse traders - Clay and Clive, and sell them the horses.
Unfortunately they will pay you a lot less than Tavish Gray promised. Your share will be $116.66.
From now, you can sell horses to Clay and Clive. They will pay you more than a stable for stolen horses, but less for purchased horses.
