It's good to see that you're preparing, and it looks like you're on your way. I would recommend thinking about blankets, though. You listed it, but not what weight it is. Depending on the climate, you may need to own more than one. For places with cold winters, I recommend at least a light weight and a heavy weight, as you can layer them for additional warmth. Make sure your blankets say they're turnouts, too, as these are much more durable than stable blankets.

You're also going to want to stock up on bathing supplies. A basic shampoo, bucket, large body sponge, and sweat scraper are all must-haves. You don't want to bathe your horse too often as excess water softens the hooves and too much soap can destroy the coat's natural oils. But a bath now and then is good to get a dirty horse clean again and is usually a must before a big show. You'll also want to think about products like Show Sheen or Cowboy Magic for touch ups between baths.

You may also want to consider any supplements you may need in your feed. I'm the first to protest unnecessary supplements, but some horses require a little something extra in their feed. Some supplements are also necessary depending on where you live. For instance, in Southern Florida where there is a lot of sand in the soil, most horses are on sand colic preventatives.

Make sure you also have the supplies necessary for keeping your tack in top shape. A sponge and leather oil or bar of saddle soap will go a long way. The Lexol products are some of the best oils on the market, but Leather New can also be very good. You may also want to invest in a leather punch, as you may have to make some adjustments to your tack to get it to fit.

I also recommend that you have at least a couple extra pads, as these can get dirty and sweaty very quick. Most people (at least English riders) tend to ride in two pads: a basic all-purpose pad and either a gel or fleece bad for additional cushioning. There are tons of correctional pads around, too, in case your saddle doesn't fit quite right on your horse's back. I like wither-relief pads (they have a cut out over the wither area) for taking the pressure off the horse's wither.

You may also want to think about some kind of protective leg wraps (polos are great) or boots (galloping boots for general work, open-fronts for jumping, etc.). If you plan on doing any kind of hard riding, especially jumping, I highly recommend protecting your horse's legs. You should also think about travel gear if you're going to be trailering the horse. I always advise owners invest in shipping boots, which protect the horse's legs from hoof to knee/hock. If you can't get shipping boots, at least make sure you wrap the horse's legs in pillow wraps and secure it with standing wraps. I've seen too many horses get nervous and seriously injure themselves in stupid accidents that could have been prevented by taking simple precautions with their legs.

Beyond that, you're going to have to see what comes. Some horses require specialty equipment or correctional equipment. You never know until a problem comes along. I have a long list of different bits and pads I've invested in over the years. At least you're doing the right thing and trying to prepare ahead of time. I've seen too many people buy a horse with no idea of the sort of equipment and supplies they'll need. Good luck with your new horse.
