Rokade is one of the hardest horses to tame, which means you'll need to have a high stamina level. If you're Level 6 or higher, run up to the horse. A prompt will appear to ride the horse - select it, and you'll mount the horse.

The hard part is taming Rokade. A bar will appear on your screen that needs to fill up to register Rokade as your mount. The horse will try to fight you off, and you'll need to move in the opposite direction of Rokade relative to your camera position.
