Thanks in advance for your answers.
If he stays with the new player can the rider go back to the original owner, granted that a spirit resources is payed from one of the new owners heros?
Just to clear up the rest of the debate, the rules specifically say that responses can be triggered by their controller (see p. 23 of the rules). If Player A gives the Rider to Player B, Player B will discard the shadow card (since he/she will control the response when the time comes to trigger it). For the effect to work any other way, it would need some sort of official errata/clarification.
Thematically, the Rider runs over to your buddy and protects his or her flank.
On the other hand, some shadow effects like that on Patrol Leader ("Cancel all damage dealt to this enemy.") apply as long as the card is revealed. Using the Rider to discard one of these "continuous" effects could be a useful strategy.
