[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 177160, member: 22283"] Maru, American Saddlebreds are an "english" style horse. The tack is nearly the same as what you see on your hunters. The dressage classes are reffered to as the "Equitation" class. Quite often the hats you see are actually safety caps, especially with the younger riders. The other American Saddlebred classes consist of 5 gaited and 3 gaited horses and ponys. Both ridden and driven. The "hackney pony" class is a gaited pony pulling a racing sulky. This is the only other class that requires helmets. They wear the helmets more for a traditional thing than safety, as they also wear the same jockey get-ups that trotting racers (standardbred) would wear. The expertise required to compete with horses of this caliber makes it so most folks are expert handlers/rider of their horses. Falling down is a rare occasion, although it happens-the rate is far below that of jumpers. [/QUOTE]
