noun
North American
A herd of spare saddle horses kept on a ranch, from which the riders pick their mounts each day.
In the cattle country of the American West, a remuda was the string of broken horses that ranch hands rode in rotation so that no animal was worked too hard. A wrangler looked after it, driving the herd up each morning for the cowboys to choose from. The word is Spanish, from a root meaning exchange or change of mounts, and it entered English through the ranching trade.
