Because there is no consistency in the recommendations, the group at Penn performed a study to determine if it was easier to catch horses in a pasture by making direct eye contact or not making direct eye contact.

Because of the placement of the eyes, horses have blind spots in their vision, which are important to understand and be aware of.

What do horses fear most
I've seen horses who were terrified of llamas, pigs, buffalo, donkeys, ponies and fence banners. I had one gelding who couldn't bear to be around a fallen panel. I've been to events on Paint Horses and POAs (Pony of the Americas Club), and other horses were afraid of me and my spotted animals.1. Humans making sudden, unnecessary movements—movements that could be perceived as aggression on the part of the human (like chasing them with a plastic bag tied to a whip).While they don't exactly "smell" fear like we'd sniff out freshly baked pie, they're incredibly adept at picking up on our physiological changes. So, if you're jittery, your horse will probably mirror that nervous energy, becoming more skittish and alert. Remember, it's all about the bond; they feel what you feel!
Affection in Horse Terms
Kissing and hugging are human ideas of affection. Horses do “spar” (play fight) and bite at the lips, but that's even more of a reason not to kiss them there. Keep your horse's lips away from your lips. You don't want him to think you're playing and be bitten.

What is horse’s worst enemy
The fight against the horse's worst enemy: the fly. Here in the UK, both biting flies and non-biting flies bother our horses. Some horses can react dramatically to flies, resulting in distress and behavioural issues; especially during the summer season when flies are at their worst.
Helpful Hints to Remember
Do not stand directly behind the horse.
Never wrap the lead around your hand or body.
Teach your horse to be patient when being turned loose.
Do not allow the lead to drag on the ground.
Never stand, lead, or back standing directly in front of the horse.
– Because horses are prey animals, they have a strongly attuned sense of awareness. They can sense things that are not perceivable to most humans. They can recognize our intentions, emotions, and other energetic projections much easier then we can. Essentially, you cannot hide who you are from a horse.
Can horses smell your fear : Horses lifted their head and tended to touch the familiar person more when sniffing the odor from the fear condition compared to that from the joy condition, suggesting that they perceived fear in the first odor and reacted with a fear-related behavior.
