Cavalry Charge.

If the dragonborn moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature while mounted and then hits with a lance attack on the same turn, it can make a trample attack against that creature as a bonus action.
Locked Saddle.

The dragonborn can’t be knocked prone, dismounted, or moved against its will while mounted.
Mounted Warrior.

The dragonborn is rarely seen without its giant lizard mount. The lizard wears custom scale mail that raises its Armor Class to 15. While the dragonborn is mounted, the giant lizard can’t be charmed or frightened.
