You'll be taking actions as normal. your mount will not. <br/>The way a mounted character fights in pathfinder is fairly straight forward, assuming you make all the relevant ride and handle animal checks. Essentially while you ride your animal you move at it's speed and take up it's space. So for a horse you are large without the actually large template, so no natural reach, but no penalty to attack or ac either. otherwise you take your turn normally, moving is a move action still, you just use your mounts moment statistics. you attack with your own attacks and can cast spells to hearts content. <br/>Your mount however loses all it's own actions and is now treated more like an item for your character, you can make it attack as normal as a free action using the ride skill. Conceivably this includes making a full attack if you qualify being able to do so yourself.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Actually want to clear up some things and if PP would help clear this up for future expediency.   The way I have read in regards to a mount.  Especially concerning a war horse, one trained.   Is that on a charge the hoofs become the primary attack and the bite secondary.   Next unless the character or mount has some feat that allows a full on attack the only multiple is the hoofs which is primary.   The bite is not used for a horse doesn't have the pounce.    Likewise the rider does not gain full array of attacks as if they haven't actually moved.   Unless they have appropriate feats to cause such effect.   (Side note, the hoofs becoming primary is answer given by Paizo in the questions and answers.)<br/><br/>
