Braking in corners or trail braking is an art in itself. Rule of thumb is get your speed right before hitting the corner as maximum grip is had with neutral and constant power. If you need to brake in a corner the back brake is best as a rear skid or loss of traction skid is easier to control than a front wheel skid. With a front wheel skid in a corner you are more or less out control until your tyre regains grip. Also with the the use of the front brake your weight is transfered forward further adding to the chance of a front wheel wash out because the grip is on the side wall of the tyre and not the centre.
Rear brake should be used gently so as not to cause loss of grip. Also consider changing gear and using engine braking. This should also be done with caution when engaging the clutch after the gear change.
