M. Howe: 'Leaping-riders can be awkward and unbalancing because of their ability to attack through pawn walls...'
Of course, this 'brutal' aspect of the riders is solved in the 'Kwagga', which can only capture on the first leap. The Kwagga is used in Bodyguard Chess.
Possibly, it could be tried with a nightrider, too, if somebody cares to do it. /Mats
