Ok, so even before you put the saddle on, you should do ground work with the horse. You should lunge him, walk him around the pasture, anything to get him moving again. Pat Parelli makes really good DVD's on this type of stuff. Level one is all about building your relationship with your horse before you get on. It's crutial you do this so the horse will trust you. If you have a lunging whip, just rub all over the horse with it so it gets comfortable.
If you want to hurry and ride, you may want to get the sadle and just out it on the horse's back, go ahead and tack him up, but just lunge so he gets used to the feeling of weight on his back again.

It is a horse that can been ridden...depending on the degree of riding, how much it has been ridden and who it is approved for (i.e. novice, beginner, intermediate or experienced).

A well broke horse, however, has been used under saddle for a while and is likely not to buck anyone off.

Who invented how to ride a horse?
We have evidence that a horse was ridden in Dereivka, 6,000 years ago. His body was found buried with other items in a ritualistic way and the wear on his teeth suggested a bit had been in his mouth for around 300 hours. Dereivka was Norh East of the Black Sea. The Stredny Stog culture lived there. Horses could have been ridden before this and we have either not found their bones or else they were ridden in a bitless bridle so there is little evidence, however it is unlikely they were ridden much before this. You will find more information on 'the cult stallion' on google or from Steve Budiansky's Who_invented_horseback_ridingThe Nature of HorsesOR THE INDIANS LOL

Assuming that you mean "broken" it means that the horse has not been yet intruduced to a saddle and bridle yet and has not been ridden. Hope this helped! :D

Can a Dutch carriage horse horse be ridden?
Yes, Dutch carriage horses can be ridden. If it is an unbroke horse, start it just as you would a normal horse, however, if you're asking this sort of question, you may wish to use a professional trainer to do it, or to give you lessons. If it is a horse that has been pulling a cart for a long period of time, it may not think anything too terribly abnormal about a person riding them. Again, you should still consult a trainer.
