That's my preference also -- if a horse walks with his head near my hip, it's easy, when he takes a step forward with the near foot, for his hoof to scrape down the back of my ankle or hit my ankle bone. That HURTS!!! I also want to see more than the horse's head from the corner of my eye -- when I can read more of the language of his whole body, I have more time to react in case something happens.
