Thank you ladies! Both for agreeing with me, and for supplying me with 
the term I was looking for.  Heidi explained it all quite well, but it 
was the term that simply wouldn't come to mind.  Self carriage. 
 

============================================================
Riding alone is when you teach a horse all the "tools" and "cues" he needs
to handle the trail, to hold a speed, deal with hills, etc. It's also where
you develop the "bond" that causes him to "defer" to you before losing his
cool.
