I believe that this is correct, it is the same for humans that get bit, keep
them still and as little exertion as possible.  That is what I was thought
in fist aid for people.  It should apply to horses as well.

Just a warning, it is extremely important that you do not "work a horses
butt off"  with a poisonous snake bite b'c this increase in circulation will
cause it to spread  throughout the body at a much faster rate, causing more
devastation throughout. If your horse gets bitten  you must try and keep
them as still as possible.  Make sure that the horse is completely recovered
b'f working them.
