Like other animals, horses do instinctively know how to jump. Some are more talented at it than others however. When adding a rider, the horse's balance changes and even a good jumper at liberty may become difficult with a rider. Schooling is almost always vitally necessary when jumping a mounted horse.

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.

How do horses learn how to jump?
Horses don't "learn" too jump as such its in their blood and they automatically know how to do it. Its like learning to crawl for a baby i guess??? Nobody TEACHES a baby to crawl they know they have to learn it and keep trying. Horses don't generally jump out of fields and stuff, they have no reason too but if they are being rode and are faced with a jump, if they are confident, they are being ridden well and safely, the horse is comfortable and they are at a decent speed.. they will jump it. When horses jump for the first time you should keep with small cross poles, gradually raising the jumps over a period of time, making low, small courses, changing the directions and patterns of jumping to keep them interested in it. So they do "learn" to jump properly and higher but in their heads, naturally they CAN jump and in the wild in danger a horse would attempt to jump high barriers that would lead them away from the danger. xx
