Egyptian Arabian horse. right age?

He is being trained under saddle right now. Let him get that under his belt before you go jumping him. Also you should start out with ground/trotting poles before you even introduce him to the bigger jumps. Flatwork is extremely important when teaching a horse to jump. If you miss something or go too quickly it will be very dangerous later.

As far as his breed goes, I don't even like to start my Arabians on the flat n until they're 4. They mature much slower than other breeds and they are very refined. If you start them too soon and put too much on their plate you will ruin them. It's so easy for them to sustain injuries to their joints around 3-4 because they're still growing and fusing together.

Don't expect him to be a huge show jumper. Most Arabians are not so great jumpers once you get past a certain height. They're fine for small/low courses, but most are unable to succeed at higher courses. So you're going to need to take it slow with him. Get him used to a certain height then raise the course. Don't push him to go farther than he needs to go.

As with any other horse you need to have the basics perfected before you even look into jumping. All Arabs are thin boned, and generally poor jumpers but like always there are always a few that are okay/good.

Small exercises such as ground poles and slanted ground poles are not only used to improve striding, but they're also a brilliant way to introduce jumping as the horse needs to think about co-ordination and where its feet are. I would be doing that at 4 and half, no earlier. I would expect the horse to be jumping 2ish feet by age 6, and up to 3 feet by 7. It isn't common for Arabs to safely clear a jump over that height.

When it comes to training, you must know what you're doing. Arabians are one of the smartest breeds so you need to be on your game. I own 2 Arabians, they're 12 and 8. The 8 year old, Atlas, was broken to the saddle at 5, and was only taught to jump this past year. He doesn't clear 3 foot rails, but he doesn't hesitate to jump a 3 foot fallen log when trail riding. He is in training for endurance, so a bit of jumping is useful there.

All in all, an Arabian is just a breed and should be introduced to/taught jumping like any other horse. The only difference is the age at which you should start.

Personally, I'm no longer a fan. Arabs can also be particularly sizzling and they are no longer a exceptional fit for green riders. That being mentioned there are constantly exceptions, however I choose Quarter Horses, and even Quarabs (QHxArabians), due to the fact that they are slightly extra mellow and do not brain inexperienced riders as a lot. Some Quarabs appear like Arabians however have the calm, warmblooded nature of Quarter Horses, so if it is the appear you favor that is one technique to pass. Take some time watching at horses and make certain the vendor permits you to check out driving them, dealing with them, etcetera in order that you already know what horse you are getting. Go see them greater than as soon as! Good success!

I would say don't start jumping him untill he's atleast 5 or 6 if possible.
