Amazon.com has clips from most songs on the CDs they sell. You can listen to ~20secs of each track. John Williams (star wars, indiana jones etc) compositions make great musical accompaniment. When I was a gymnast we used his music for floor routines alot. There is also a piece called "the gates of Kieve" that works well and is amazing. Can't remember the composer. Sountrack to Braveheart is always a hit as is "Appalachian Spring" by Aaron Copeland.

Star Wars has been a bit overdone - judges have heard it so much they tend to switch off.

Isabell Werth has a selection of CDs with a good variety of music (which include some of the Star Wars themes if you're really keen)

try www.loesdau.de or www.voss-reitsport.de had good service from both

I understand your situation. In my experience, the easiest thing to do is just buy the CD. This is good for various reasons. One: It will make it easy to isolate the EXACT section you want to work with. Lets face it...the likelyhood of find the exact sample your looking for from an entire piece of music is pretty small.
Second, if you do find it on the web...the audio quality may be rough (could be in a really cheesy file format)..and additionally, if you buy it...you really have the right to use it for your own freestyle. Copyright law is murky, so its just easier and faster to just buy the CD and work from there.
If you need to slow or speed things up, you will be glad your audio started out high quality.
What level are you riding at?

You need to go to your local library and request some CDs to burn/rip if you really don't want to buy.

I really like the song 'Anakin's Dark Deeds' and I tend to use Amazon for listening to samples as BackInTheSaddle says...good luck...:)
