Lease Contract Help

I put up an ad for partial lease on my mare, just to see if I would get any viable responses. I was not expecting to get responsible, good riders contacting me, and if things work out I may have an awesome leaser.

So now I am trying to get a contract together. It doesn't need to be anything super fancy, but obviously needs to protect horse owner (me), horse, and leaser. This is for partial lease.

Do any of you know of any good contract templates I could look at?

To be specific, the lease allows the leaser to have full use of the horse three days a week. They pay a lease fee, and I am still covering all the costs of care for the horse (lease fee will cover boarding, but they will pay to me and I will still be doing the communicating and payment to barn owner).

A 'hold harmless' contract template would also be helpful.

Thank you everyone for your time and replies. The potential leaser flaked out and never even made it out to try the horse. Oh well. If I ever do find somebody, I will refer back here. Thanks again :)
