Horses are horses. Riding is riding. Safety is the same wherever you go. Just have a helmet handy, and be sure to use safe riding equipment. Never use a saddle, bridle, hackamore, martingale, bit, ANYTHING if it is torn or broken. They will completely break and most likely that will lead to a lose horse and a human on the floor.
