What is a hunter pony?
There are basically two different type of ponies an equitation and a hunter. A hunter horse simply means that it has a nice gait, nice movement, stride, and a nice rounded jump to it. If you ever compete in a hunter division, it pretty much means that the judge is judging the horse more than the rider. So when you are being judged, you want you make it look like the horse is doing all the work. At a trot and/or canter, you want to let the reins go loose and let your horse stretch its neck. And at the jumps you want the horse/pony's leg to round up by its head. You cant trust this information (: I compete in both hunter and equitation with my 4 yr old pony :D

What is the definintion of a roping horse?
A roping horse has the job of running after the cow or steer keeping in the perfect position for the rider/riders to lasso the steer's horns. This can be done with a single horse/rider or 2 horse/rider teams known as team roping or more commonly 'heading and heeling'. With the 2 horse/rider teams, and the reason it's called 'heading and heeling' the steer comes out of the chute followed by the first horse/rider and then the delayed follow by the 2nd team. The first rider has to catch the horns (heading). Within a couple of seconds the 2nd rider has to rope at least one hind leg (heeling). The horses have to be as well trained as the ropers themselves and it is a difficult and demanding sport. But it is so much fun to watch. Like with most things, the horse/rider teams that are really good make it look easy.
