What rules apply for doing a ride-by grab of an item to steal it while mounted? Are there any prestige classes with related abilities? I am building a gang of goat-mounted dwarven bandits--- The Buckriders.

I don't think Sleight of Hand even applies. You wouldn't have time to identify items (or even be able to put your hands in someone's pocket) and of course stealth is out of the question.
I think the right rule is grapple, or maybe disarm. You would zip by someone, cut their backpack straps, bags, etc, grab that and run off with the bag. Once you're far enough away to be safe, you can examine the bags and see if there's anything worthwhile.

Yes, it is closer to a grapple than it is to a pickpocket attempt. Maybe require Ride-By Attack and Improved Grapple?

Alternatively, you could use Ride-By Attack and Improved Disarm to grab an item from the hand(s) of a wandering nobleman or mage.

Disarm sounds better than Grapple. Any other mechanics or abilities I should consider for this class?

Are there any rules for using lassoes in 3.5E? I cannot seem to find anything...

Here is the class ability I am giving my raiders:
Mounted Raider: While mounted and charging you can use a disarm attempt to snatch an object held or worn by your target. You do not provoke an attack of opportunity by the target.
