The horse doesn't actually use any bones; those are just the support. The muscles are what really enable a horse to jump. The horse generally uses the muscles throughout the hindquarters, using them to propel his body through the air.

How do you teach your horse to jump without it going lame?
If there is an issue where your horse comes up lame while jumping then you need to have the vet out to take a look at the horse to see what the issue is. Not all horses are capable of jumping as it puts enormous strain on their tendons, ligaments, muscles and bones. Your horse may have an old injury that will not allow it to jump, or to jump as much as you would like to. In any case if the horse comes up lame repeatedly then you likely will not be able to use that horse for jumping any longer.

What do you do if your horse refuses a jump in the show arena?
if your horse refuses the jump, you turn the horse around in a circle, then go a little ways away from the jump, (but not too far giving the horse time to think about how to get away with going over the jump) and then (if the jump is not too large) trot your horse over the jump giving it leg pressure up to the jump to coax it to jump. (its easier to trot over the jump than canter when your horse doesn't want to jump it) if your horse refuses a jump during a show, this will count down points but if your horse refuses a few times you are disqualified. hope that helps!
