A sulky for carrying a rider behind a horse consisting essentially of an arch, a pair of wheels connected to the arch, a pair of rails extending from the arch forward in the direction of the horse, one on each side thus establishing a plane and the direction of the rails establishing a longitudinal axis of the sulky, a coupling for coupling each of the rails to the arch, wherein the coupling permits lateral movement of the rails about vertical pivot axes relative to the arch and an element for stabilizing movement of the rails connected between the plane of the rails substantially adjacent the horse and the arch. In a preferred embodiment the motion of the rails is restricted to lateral movement in a horizontal plane and the ends of the rails adjacent the arch are movably connected with a "U" joint overlapping the upper and lower surfaces of the arch. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the segments of the rails adjacent the harness of the horse include a ball joint-containing section and a free end which is capable of quickly coupling to a clevis integral with the harness.
