What is that thing called-the one with which the side-view of a horse is blocked?

Answer 1

Blinders - Consisting of a leather eye-patch sewn to the side of the halter that prevents a horse from seeing something on either side

Answer 2

Not my horse, but a friend's horse completely dropped out from under me one day. Didn't trip or slip, just flat-out fell. Apparently, this horse has a history of falling (and I didn't know it when I got on him). For no reason at all, he just falls down... I wonder if he might be narcoleptic. As far as my own horses go, I've never had any scary riding experiences. My Appy once sliced his foot open, severing the artery and everything. We thought he was going to bleed out because we couldn't stop the blood flow. If I hadn't been standing right across the field when he did it, I probably would have come out to find a dead horse. So that's my scariest experience with a horse, ever.

Blinders, also known as blinkers, are a piece of equipment used on a horse's face that restrict the horse's vision. They usually compose of leather or plastic cups that are places on either side of the eye, so that the horse can not see to his sides. Many racehorse trainers believe this keeps the horse focused on what is in front of him, encouraging him to pay attention to the race rather than other distractions, such as crowds. Additionally, blinkers are commonly seen on driving horses, to keep horses from being distracted or spooked, especially on crowded city streets. Many of the riding disciplines, other than racing, do not permit the use of blinders in competition at any time, under penalty of elimination.
