Many states have "limitations on equine professionals liability " las 
that cover such things. These laws may have very specific requirements 
for them to apply and may require specific wording in a release form. It 
would be best to check whatever release you use with the law in your 
state. Florida's does I know.

As a layer friend once told me the wavers or releases show intent and 
shows the person was warned and knowingly accepted the risk - however, a 
person cannot be forced to waive their right to sue and depending on the 
situation a judge could just throw it out, even if he doesn't it won't 
in and of itself get you our of a lawsuit. However, it's much better to 
have one than not.
