well you must think about it , if you are buying the horse first then i would buy him first BEFORE you buy any gear , this will save confusion and if he does not work out then you are stuck with all of this gear.....

i would myself have the horse on trail before you decide to finally bring him home unless you know the horse well or you have taken him out and done abit on him , then i would start looking for tack and gear

these are the basic items that you need to look after your horse

health items

you need a first aid kit (you can find the complete list of what you need in it on Google or in horse care books)

feed

you need to have good quality feed both hay and hard feed is good and its best to check out with a local feed store to see what is right to feed your horse eg how much work is he getting etc

tack

you need a correctly fitting saddle (best to get a saddle fitter out) they might cost a bit more but you know the saddle fits and the horse is happy in it

bridle that fits your horse and a bit that also fits your horse

reins

saddle blanket and a saddle pad (if needed)

girth

stirrup irons

stirrup leathers

riding crop (if needed)

helmet

riding boots and chaps (if wanted)

good riding pants

covers if your horse lives out side

wormers

there will be more that i have missed out these are only the basic things that you "might" need

What breed and type of horse should I buy?

It all depends on what you want to do, if you want to show you would want a trained show horse, if you just want a riding horse, get one who has a nice temperment and is suitable for your level of riding experience. If you just want to ride a couple times a week, don't get a high energy horse who needs lots of training and attention.
