There are a few Patron Saints of horseback riders. My favorite is Martin of Tours (aka Martin the Merciful. The Patron Saint of many things, including riders, horsemen (and women) and equestrians. Once, while on horseback, he encountered a beggar . Having nothing to give but the clothes on his back, he cut his heavy officer's cloak in half and gave it to the beggar. Then he had a vision of Christ wearing this cloak. The painting of Martin the Merciful and the beggar is the most common one you'll find. When the bishop of Tours passed away, Martin was asked to become bishop, he declined. But because of the love of the people and their "votes" he did indeed become bishop.
