by bending their legs and its natural they just know either their will jump or crash... --this is true-- The same way people jump.They jump by cantering towards the jump. Horses rely mainly on you, so you stand in the stirrups. the horse will lift off, and you sail over. Careful, though, as if you gallop, your horse will approach too fast, and all the weight will come crashing down on his legs as he stumbles. This can break a horses leg. Horses are able to trot-jump, too.
Horses eventually learn by the fact that "Oh my gosh I cant go around it! Oh my gosh I cant go through it! And wow i can go over it!" Most ponies are taught to tuck their legs under by when they go over it the people on the other sides of the jumps raise it to bump them as they go over it. Horses learn just like us!

What do you call the high jump for horses?
As far as I know there isn't a "high jump" for horses, if you mean the height a horse can jump, then i can tell you different horses have different hieghts they are able to jump ranging from a few inches above the ground to the highest jump ever recorded; 8ft 3 1/2 in, though its not official because it was in front of about 20 people, not a public crowd. (this height is rare and most horses jump 3-4 or 5 ft)..... Also Chase me Charlie is a game and sometimes a class at horse shows where several horses and riders attempt to jump higher than the other, like limbo for people, but the jumps get higher.

Can you jump a gaited horse?
Yes, with proper training and care gaited horses can jump. When you have people who say gaited horses can't jump, what they are basically saying is that "no, a horse can't jump." which is false. Horses need basics to survive (aside from food, water, shelter, ect.) they need strength and agility without that horses won't be able to survive at all. Jumping is one of those instincts horses do. If a horse can't jump in the wild, especially if its getting chased by a predator and there's a log in the way, then the horse would stop and it will die. Horses have agility and yes THEY CAN JUMP. Don't let people fool you because jumping is one of many horse natural abilities. However, you need to train gaited horses before you go all crazy, remember that gaited horses don't have the same muscles as non-gaited horses do, just do some training and hire a trainer to help you. ALL horses can jump the trainer and the rider just need to put their heart into it.
