A horse owner should avoid jumping their horse until he is at least 4 years old. This gives the horse time to grow strong healthy bones and also lets their hocks fuse properly. Premature jumping will most likely cause lameness later on in life. However some breeds devlop slower such as Arabians. Breeds that devolp slower should be held off from jumping a little longer. Remember that training for jumping starts the day the horse is broke. Starting off with ground poles and then progressing to cavalettis.
Horses in lower levels of the sport could compete until they are about 25, while it is really not wise to show horses over 18 in higher levels. As for humans, there is no age limit.
