Working cowboys in general didn't ride the same horse every day. It would wear out the horse. There would be a herd of horses from which the cowboys would pick to ride that day or the next day. That herd is called a remuda. A corral is an enclosure to keep animals in.

A "Remuda" is a group of horses broken to the saddle. While "Corral" is a holding pen for livestock... including horses.
