Origin: This19th- century Americanism originated as an instruction to a carriage driver who was letting his team of horses go too fast. By pulling back on the reins, the driver could slow the horses to a stop. This was called "holding the horses." The saying might also have come from harness racing. Rookie drivers often started their horses too soon, and the starter had to yell, "Hold your horses!" Today the phrase refers to slowing down and being patient in whatever you're doing.
