Blue Ribbon Handbook Pasterns Give a Spring to the Stride, Making Saddlebreds Very Comfortable to Ride The American Saddlebred The American Saddlebred is the epitome of the show horse. He carries himself with an attitude that is elusive of description—some call it “class”, presence, quality, style, or charm. This superior air distinguishes his every movement. The characteristics that have contributed to the Saddlebred’s reputation as the “peacock of the show ring” also makes him a versatile horse. Smoothness of gaits, speed coupled with intelligence and powerful muscling enable him to do whatever is asked of him. Saddlebreds have excelled in the show ring as well as many non-traditional disciplines such as dressage, eventing, show jumping, combined driving, and endurance, as well as recreational and competitive trail riding.

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • Hat Should I Wear for a Horse Show? While the Answer to This Question
    hat should I wear for a horse show? While the answer to this question will W vary depending on whether you are riding in a local schooling show or competing in a rated show (e.g. the “A” rated Midstates Horse Shows in Mason City, or the “B” rated Valley Park in Des Moines), the following information should help you figure out what is appropriate. If you have any questions about whether something is appropriate, ask your trainer. This is always good advice. Helmet & Hair Whether you are jumping huge fences or just sitting on your horse waiting for your lesson to begin, accidents can happen to anyone, at any time. Thus, any time you are mounted you need to be wearing a helmet with the chin-strap fastened. Purchase an ASTM/SEI-approved helmet that hasn’t been involved in a fall. After a serious impact resulting in obvious helmet damage, discard the helmet and buy a new one. You May wish to replace it even if there is no external damage. The general rule is to replace a helmet every 5 years, whether or not it has been involved in a fall. When trying on helmets, wear your hair as you’ll wear it when riding, as this will affect the fit. Helmets should fit snugly and be worn over the top of your head, with the brim resting just above your eyebrows. Do not wear your helmet perched on top of your head, or tilted back. If your helmet wiggles when you shake your head, it is too large.
