x.Marsh[mel]low.x ^^ here's some corrections to keep in mind.
As for shading, it's good for starting, but chose a light source (example, coming from the "sky" of the drawing) and shadow places that the sun wouldnt hit darker. Also dont be afraid to put dark colors against light colors if shadowing calls for it. Use refference pictures ^^
The green stick-person is an outline I use for drawing people on horses.
Also, even really muscular horses dont have that sharp of muscle, and jumping horses are bit more slender, generally, and smooth.
(also can use these pics as shadow refferences, and decide what colors to use. For example, in this first one you can use black, brown, gold, tan, and yellow) (ALSO note possition of rider, because the corrected possition was just a guess for me. I'm no English rider)
This one you can blend greys and whites in with the brown (this is a very muscled horse, note the difference in its neck and the neck your drew in coloring, muscles, AND shape)
Simple drawing/shading/coloring
Another very muscled jumping horse, NOW note the pinch in the muscles at the flex of the neck... it's not muscle shape, simply pinched skin. Compare to your drawing.
Other than this, you might want to start with stick figures, draw the horse first, and then the rider, and then the tack. This is one of something I just drew today, and randomly took progress pics, but you can see how I did it, and how it progresses. It might help XD
The disproportions shown are just because of the webcam. I'll post a picture of it when I get it scanned.
 Thanks. um though the person is me... thats why she has purple hair... i have purple hair... just because i find that freeking some rather "normal" if you know what i mean.... well freeking people out lol ^_^ and the horse, Elmo, he is just a all around what ever you need him for horse. and... hes 14.2 hands, overweight, and bulcky. xD but i see what you mean and ill work on it ^_^ thanks biggrin

 Did this in about two minutes, so the proportions are screwy, but it should help you a bit.

The first horse just looked a little twisted and lots of muscle but the second and third were really good

If you want to learn to draw perfectly proportional horses, then take all of this advice. But your pictures are actually very perfect for kids' books. I can't draw like that. It's a cuter style that you have that I think a lot of kids' publishing companies respond very well to.
