If you're just starting out the xSi is a great place to start. If you're doing something as fast paced as horse shows (at least I'm pretty sure they're fast pace, at least at times), you'll need an f/2.8 lens. The rest depends on how far away you are from the action. A good general use lens is going to be a 70-200mm (some slight variations on this like the 80-210mm, etc). The ones made by Canon are much better than the 3rd party lenses, but the ones from Canon also cost about twice as much, so there is a trade off. If you're going to be very far away from the action you may want to go with a 300mm f/2.8. Hope this helps, if you have any other questions feel free to ask.
