What is the best bit to use for a lipizzaner?
It depends on the horse, his level of training and the kind of work he will do. If dressage is his sport, and depending on what level he is riding at, he will probably use a double bridle. A double bridle actually has 2 bits and 2 sets of reins. This bit is for advanced horse and rider and needs a lot of skill to use it correctly. The Royal Lipizzan Stallions used these bridles.
What is the purpose of riding boots?
Depends on what kind of boots your talking about... Competition Boots such as splint boots are used to support and prevent injury to tendons during strenuous activities such as gaming or just galloping in general. They also help prevent a horse from clipping itself on an obstacle when jumping or overreaching w/ its hind legs and also prevent injuries from impact upon landing. Helpful to use on horses that crossfire or brush their legs together occasionally. Bell boots (or overreach boots) are to help prevent the horse from stepping on the back of their front feet and possibly tearing out an important tendon. Although it is recommended to by a no turn version that won't spin and become (1) useless and (2) uncomfortable for the horse. Skid boots are similar to bell boots but are usually higher and used frequently in activities where the horse is required to stop quickly (such as roping) as opposed to gaming or jumping. Not every horse needs to wear boots if they seem able to avoid clipping themselves during what ever competitive riding you do. Although some horses can even manage to do this simply having a little fun in the pasture, so I've always felt somewhat nervous about leaving them off my horse. Boots are also helpful on trails that might be a little rough and do a decent job keeping the legs clean when you are wading through a foot of mud. Just make sure you invest in a pair that is comfortable for the horse, does what it is required of what your using it for and doesn't keep your horse too warm (which isn't a problem where I live but has been for many of my friends). Good luck :) I have a 16hh Irish thoroughbred and he is recovering from a fetlock strain i use fetlock boot on him when jumping or doing pole work in case he hit his leg of the poles :D
How do you use protective boots on horses?
=Most protective boots, if they are the front boots, have velcro straps that connect the boot. The boots should have a part that the fetlock goes into, this piece will be a little area that looks like a bump. Place the fetlock in the bump and then wrap the boot around the leg and attach the velcro to the opposite side of the boot. They should be as tight as possible but you should be able to get a finger in them. =
How many kind of horses are used in dancing horses?
Well you know you can use pretty much any breed of horse whenever you are dancing horses or doing Dressage (Dressage is the same things as dancing horses.) But Arabians are probobly the best at it. Any breed of horse can be trained to do dressage. The lower levels of dressage are not so much dancing as much as a predetermined pattern of circles and straight lines, and transitions of the 3 different gaits of the horse. In the higher levels of dressage, like the ones you see in the Olympics that really do look like they are dancing, the majority of these horses are warmbloods imported from Germany, Sweden, The Netherlands, etc. like the Hanovarian, Holsteiner, Trakhner, Westfalen, Swedish Warmblood, Dutch Warmblood, etc. A lot of the times these horses are crossed with Thoroughbreds or other breeds. Also, the Lippizaner stallions are famous for their world renowned show called the Dancing horses, which are some beautiful maneuvers that originated from when horses were used during battle years and years ago.

Are brushing boots allowed for pony races?
Hmm... not really, Horses usaully use Brushing Boots for Cross Country, maybe Jumping & possibly Dressage. I ride a Horse called Rupert, and we usaully do Cross Country and I always put on Brushing Boots on his Legs when galloping about and tackling over fences. Jumping if fine, horses can wear them, but they are mainly for protection. I'm 95% positive with what I said, but it's best to contact whoever is running the races (If you are entering in one). Just remember they are there for protection!
