I mean there are professional jockeys and show riders who must be doing *something* at a very high level, but I honestly don’t understand what. Like if I’m riding a horse that’s jumping over a fence, isn’t that all the horse? And I just need to not fall off?

look at it this way. it takes a lot of skill to motivate the most skittish 600kg ball of pure muscle alive to a (from it’s perspective) extremely dangerous 10cm deep puddle that might be filled with crocodiles for all it knows.
like seriously, horses are astoundingly, stupendously stupid/scared easily. I know a horse who will refuse to enter a paddock because there’s a single fucking crisp packet lying next to the path.
