Hey, the sport is about horses, I like it. Though, I don't like Racing as much as everything else.
I ride, English, western and drive.
Anything with horses.

As far as watching professionals compete, I would have to choose show jumping although not stadium jumping. I think watching cross country jumping like the events held at Spruce Meadows is extremely exciting, especially the jump-offs.
Although I have my moods when I like to watch the beauty and extreme "hidden" communication between a horse and it's rider with dressage too.
Polo does nothing for me and Racing is borderline cruel. It's 98% about the money and maybe 2% about the horse.
Personally I like to jump over little jumps for fun.

Well... watching jumping is great but you can't get there without dressage, or at least it's the basic for everything. I love how it communicates with the horse. Don't know much about polo. Racing disgusts me. It's one thing to watch and be awed by a horse's beauty and power when running- but that is not the racing industry.

Well I like racing as that is the indusrty I grew up working in.
I train now in dressage and jumping and some racing.
I re-train retired race horses into second careers as pleasue horses or jumpers or what ever they are able to do and good at doing.

i've got been thinking approximately that for somewhat a on a similar time as, enormously because of the fact there's a horse racing area in activities. as though horse racing is the only form of horseback driving which would be seen a pastime? i assume they my have desperate to try this because of the fact while human beings ask questions that's no longer quite lots driving yet horse care too.

Western, Barrel racing and racing for fun.
Jumping is alright, but my skills are more in Western.

i like jumping to watch and it is very fun, but my fave would have to be dressage as it cannot hurt the horses in any way, like jumping and racing can.

I love barrel racing because you need such an athletic horse. And I love Quarter Horses.
