Set (Training Set)
A set is a group of horses taken out to train at the same time, under one trainer or assistant — a barn's morning is organized into successive sets.
Exercise riders take out the first set, bring them back, then head out with the next, until the whole barn has trained. Working horses in sets is efficient and lets green young horses learn alongside steadier, more experienced ones.
