HORSE
           RIDING
By Alina G-D
When horses were first around they were wild like a zebra is
today. Although they were first in North America, when people
started adventuring around the world, horses were extinct in
North America. The only horses were in central Asia, where
they ate long grass and multiplied. They also ate native apples
and carrots (that's why horses love apples and carrots even
today!). At about 100 000 BC when people arrived first in
Central Asia, they killed horses for their meet and even more
so their skin, so they could make leather hides for their clothes
and for tents and tools.
People in central Asia began to tame horses, to
domesticate them, to eat them and to use then to carry
things at around 4000 BC. It was probably the Indo-
Europeans who lived in Central Asia who tamed horses for
their own use first. The first horses were too small for
people to ride until they got bred bigger so then people
could ride them.
Barrel racing is a sport you do on horseback. It started
when women wanted to have an event that‟s was fair and
challenging but they wanted it to be competitive. They
then had an idea for taking 3 55 gallon drums (we now
call them 44s) and setting them up in clover leaf shaped
pattern, with one right turn and to lefts. They all then
got their husbands roping horses a went through the
course they were timed and the lady with the fastest
time would win.
Pole bending is a simple race all you need to do is
cross the start/finish line and bend through six evenly
spaced poles starting with the first pole on your right,
the second on your left, etc. When you reach the last
one you go right round and bend back down. The only
penalty is when you knock a pole and that is 5 seconds
added.
Hacking is an event where you get judged on how well
your horse is collected and how well you control it in
all paces (Walk, trot, and canter.) and you might be
asked to go from a halt to a canter an all the things
like that to see how educated your horse is. You can
be judged on the ring or you can be given a set work
out. There is one judge and a person that writes all
the results down.
Dressage competitions the rider and horse are
expected to do some “predetermined movements” or
figures just out of memory. They will compete in a
flat rectangle arena , around the arena is a very low
rail with 12 letters symmetrically placed to show
were movements should start and finish or to show
where you should change you place or lead.
The horse institution started a sub branch scheme in
all different parts encouraging horse riding. They
also ran events for adults, some of them started to
organize and running gymkhanas for kids. This was a
pre-pony club. The earliest recorded gymkhana was
in 1928. Now we have pony club rally days,
gymkhanas, pony camps, trail rides, horse sports
and the list goes on and on.
CROSS COUNTRY
No, cross country is not where you cross the country
on a horse. It’s where you go on a route with lots of
jumps of all kinds ( water jumps, walls, and log) they
are all usually high but it depends on the age group. It
tests you speed and also the riders knowledge of
paces.
TENT PEGGING
Tent pegging came around because of the war when they put up
the tents and it came a practise. Know there is all types of stuff
you can do like when you have a long stick with a sharp pointy
spick at the end an you have to spear and pick up some sheets
on card board, also you have to pop balloons with a gun shaped
handle with a spick on the end and you jump over small
clavately jumps, you hold a long spear and canter along and
hook rings threw it that are hanging from a stand.
SHOW JUMPING
Show jumping is when you have 3-4 judges that have set out a course,
which is lots of jumps and you have to jump over them in a set order
you have a time limit and they ring the bell if you go over that or they
will ring the bell if your horses refuses more than three times. They
often decorate the jumps by putting trees, tyres etc. Beside the jumps
this is to make it look good and to see if your horses is trained enough
to not shy.
BRIDLES
Bridles are usually made out of leather or they can be made out
of plastic. They have a „bit‟ which goes in their mouth and you
can con troll then with the reins that are attached.
SADDLES
Saddles come in all different shapes and sizes and are made out
of all different materials. A saddle has three main parts the
stirrups which is where you put your feet, the seat where it is
padded and that‟s were you sit and the saddle flaps on either
side.
PRESENTING YOUR HORSE

But there is a hand gallop and a bol5t which is where you horse takes

  Walk-All four legs tread on the ground in regular succession in this
  sequence- left fore, right hind, right fore, left hind. This is called a four

  time, left fore with right hind and right fore with left hind.

 while the other fore leg and the diagonal move together and
 the other hind leg moves by itself - a left fore lead) of right

 a three beat gait.
 Gallop-At the gallop the stride is lengthened and the period

Horse Riding

  • 1. HORSE RIDING By Alina G-D
  • 2. When horses were first around they were wild like a zebra is today. Although they were first in North America, when people started adventuring around the world, horses were extinct in North America. The only horses were in central Asia, where they ate long grass and multiplied. They also ate native apples and carrots (that's why horses love apples and carrots even today!). At about 100 000 BC when people arrived first in Central Asia, they killed horses for their meet and even more so their skin, so they could make leather hides for their clothes and for tents and tools.
  • 3. People in central Asia began to tame horses, to domesticate them, to eat them and to use then to carry things at around 4000 BC. It was probably the Indo- Europeans who lived in Central Asia who tamed horses for their own use first. The first horses were too small for people to ride until they got bred bigger so then people could ride them.
  • 4. Barrel racing is a sport you do on horseback. It started when women wanted to have an event that‟s was fair and challenging but they wanted it to be competitive. They then had an idea for taking 3 55 gallon drums (we now call them 44s) and setting them up in clover leaf shaped pattern, with one right turn and to lefts. They all then got their husbands roping horses a went through the course they were timed and the lady with the fastest time would win.
  • 5. Pole bending is a simple race all you need to do is cross the start/finish line and bend through six evenly spaced poles starting with the first pole on your right, the second on your left, etc. When you reach the last one you go right round and bend back down. The only penalty is when you knock a pole and that is 5 seconds added.
  • 6. Hacking is an event where you get judged on how well your horse is collected and how well you control it in all paces (Walk, trot, and canter.) and you might be asked to go from a halt to a canter an all the things like that to see how educated your horse is. You can be judged on the ring or you can be given a set work out. There is one judge and a person that writes all the results down.
  • 7. Dressage competitions the rider and horse are expected to do some “predetermined movements” or figures just out of memory. They will compete in a flat rectangle arena , around the arena is a very low rail with 12 letters symmetrically placed to show were movements should start and finish or to show where you should change you place or lead.
  • 8. The horse institution started a sub branch scheme in all different parts encouraging horse riding. They also ran events for adults, some of them started to organize and running gymkhanas for kids. This was a pre-pony club. The earliest recorded gymkhana was in 1928. Now we have pony club rally days, gymkhanas, pony camps, trail rides, horse sports and the list goes on and on.
  • 9. CROSS COUNTRY No, cross country is not where you cross the country on a horse. It’s where you go on a route with lots of jumps of all kinds ( water jumps, walls, and log) they are all usually high but it depends on the age group. It tests you speed and also the riders knowledge of paces.
