There are many different kinds of equestrians, so there are many different types of competition. In the English world, the main ones are Dressage, Cross-Country, and Showjumping, however there is also Hunter, Pleasure, Trail Riding, Equitation, Endurance, and saddleseat. In the Western world, there is reining, barrel racing, pole bending, penning, roping, and pleasure, along with in-hand halter and showmanship classes.

lol-that is a very broad question! There are two main riding styles; English and Western. Engish riding is stuff like jumping, dressage and eventing. In basic English riding, you ride with your shoulders back, heels down and toes out. Western riding was designed for work and such and the rodeo, barrel racing and pole bending are examples of Western events. I am not a pro in Western but I think you ride with a bit of a down heel (not as much as English) and your tow a little more out then youe heel, but for the most part the are facing strait ahead. \nI like to ride English for competing, but Western for pleasure riding (Western is more comfortable).\nHere are some links you might find interesting:\nhttp://equisearch.com/\nhttp://www.leadmare.com/\nhttp://www.parelli.com/\n\nHave fun!

The first and most popular would be the quarter horse. They have a great temperament, and are a nice smooth comfy ride

The UK Derby is the ONLY horse race in the world in which the winner can be selected purely on its breeding pedigree. Study the pedigree for class, stamina, and previous Derby winners <USA and UK> back to the fifth generation. Pay particular attention to the Female Line, a good family is essential. Interpretation of the pedigree is an art form however. This system will work only if the Derby Field is of sufficient high quality <can be bad, viz Benny The Dip 1997> Still working on this years race!

Draft crosses, Belgians, and Percherons. Calm horses, maybe quarter horses or other big breeds. Any well trained level-headed horse.

If by this you mean, what are the longest distances that racehorses run, it depends.\n\nMany steeplechase and hurdle races are run over distances in excess of 3 miles.  The horses aren't running at the same speed as horses in shorter flat races, but they are running at a good galloping pace.\n\nThere are flat races at distances up to two miles, but the trend is towards shorter races.  Most races in America are at distances of less than a mile, and the six-furlong race (that's 3/4 of a mile) is a staple of most race tracks.  Nowadays 1-1/4 miles is considered to be a long race, and something like the San Juan Capistrano at Santa Anita is considered a "marathon" at 1-3/4 miles.\n\nIn the 1800's, races at 4 miles, conducted in heats, weren't uncommon.  The typical format was the horse that won 2 out of three heats was the winner.  So in that case a horse might run 8 miles.\n\nIn endurance racing, horses "race" over great distances, but not at a gallop.  In the Tevis Cup Race in California, which is 100 miles over some very tough, mountainous terrain, the winner typically completes the couse in under 13 hours elapsed time.  (There are mandatory rest stops, which are not included in the elapsed time, which is the time the horse and rider spend on the trail.)  Some horses have completed the course in just over 11 hours.

I don't know about European classic winners, but here in the US, I think the cheapest Classic winner in modern history had to be Canonero II, who won the Kentucky Derby in 1971.  Canonero was sold at the Keeneland September yearling sale for just $1200.  Shipped to Venezuela, he started his racing career there.  He was brought back to the US to race in the Triple Crown, and won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes.\n\nOne of the all-time bargains in horse racing was Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew, who was sold at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky yearling sale for just $17,500.  Slew was sired by a then-unproven stallion, Bold Reasoning, and was the first foal of his dam, My Charmer, who was a minor stakes winner and from the Myrtelwood female line.\n\nSlew went on to win the Triple Crown, but beyond that he went on to become a world-class stallion, sire of many champions and stakes winners, whose sire line is represented by his son A.P. Indy, among others.  \n\n"The one that got away" as an all-time bargain has got to be the immortal Northern Dancer.  His owner-breeder, E.P. Taylor of Windfields farm, was in the habit of offering his entire yearling crop for sale at fixed prices.  He put a pricetag of $25,000 on Northern Dancer and got no takers, so he ended up racing the horse himself.  Northern Dancer was a Canadian-bred, was sired by the then-relatively unknown stallion Nearctic, and was small:  he matured at about 15 hands, 2 inches height.  \n\nAs the whole world knows, Northern Dancer reshaped the history of the Thoroughbred breed, becoming a leading sire and sire of sires.  When he was in his 20's, a time when most stallions are starting to be pensioned off, the Maktoum family of Dubai offered the syndicate that owned him $1 million per share to buy him.  This would have amounted to $40 million for a stallion near the end of his stud career-- an unheard-of deal.  A vote was taken among the shareholders, and the offer ended up being refused.\n\nNorthern Dancer's legacy is still running on through his son Sadler's Wells, his grandsons Galileo and Danehill, and many others.  Not bad for a horse that could have been bought for $25,000.

"When I was a teenager, Newcastle used to stage prestigious races on the Flat, like the Seaton Delaval and the Virginia Stakes, but nowadays it's all about 0-60 [rating] handicaps, which are betting-shop fodder." - Hughie Morrison\n-http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/11-26-2002-31072.asp\n\nNewcastle Racecourse is now owned by Northern Racing Company\nhttp://www.northernracing.co.uk/our_courses/newcastle.asp\nhttp://www.newcastle-racecourse.co.uk/\n\nI could not find the exact date for this year.\nHowever, last year, it was held on 15 August 2005.\n\nI'm not sure if you meant the British race or a different race located in the United States.\nWhen I did a search, I came up with quite a bit for West Virginia Stakes. I hope this helps.
