On saturday I was competing at Ponies UK Winter Champs, I was appauled to see a yound girl (of about 10) riding her pony in a pelham to when the pony didn't do as it was told to get a sevre yank in the mouth..... This combination went on to win the Small breds DALKEITH YOUNG RIDERS M&M RIDDEN, SUMMER QUALIFIER – RIHS QUALIFIER... I was utterly appauled to see this behaviour from a child so young!! If that were my child I would of dragged her off the pony!
 
I thought this behaviour was appauling especially from a child of about 10 if they behave like that now what is going to happen when they are older?! Also why is a 10 year old riding a pony in a pelham..... for a proffesional sport this was very unproffesional behaviour
 
Did you report this behaviour to the organisers, officials or judges on the day?

The only way to have any impact on this type of behaviour is through the official channels. Unfortunately moaning about it on an internet forum after the event has no effect whatsoever other than perhaps making you look like a sore loser.

Sorry.

And I'm quite appalled that you see fit to name and shame a 10 year old on a public forum.

Do you honestly, honestly, believe the ten year old child picked the Pelham all by themselves? At 10 years old, I certainly did NOT have full liberty to rifle through the bit bucket.

As others have said, this achieves nothing. If the pony was ridden as badly as you think, then the onus is on you to discuss with the officials.

And have you sat on the pony? Have you ridden it? If not, I do not believe you can comment on whether the bit if appropriate or not. And as for bit and age being directly correlated.....no, sorry. I use more "elaborate" bits now than as a child, but only when appropriate. I don't choose bits for horses by how many years I have been alive!

I have reported the childs behaviour to the PUK yes!

Then you have done what you can. But ranting on here didn't achieve much, did it? If that child wants a career, just because they may or may not have had bad advice, or may or may not have had a not so good day, who are you to publicise it? This is a CHILD we are talking about.with ADULTS advising and helping. Save your venom for those that can do something about it.

because it is permitted under rules - and I can think of a few riders that age that are more than capable of riding in a pelham properly.

Next time you have a gripe, deal with it ON THE DAY. End of :rolleyes:
Don't go 'moaning & bleating' on forums after the event.
If you dont have the bottle to find a steward & report it, then you should not be there either :rolleyes:

This. Al has done one county level show, and the bitchiness and rudeness was astonishing. Her horse did well, and she now has another who looks like they could be a super int. working hunter. However, the attitudes she met (as an 18yo on a home-produced horse) left her feeling cold...

I think not as I am a rent a jockey and rode 3 horses that day all three of them getting into the top 3 positions and myself I am far to old to ride in junior riddens!!!

In that case you should know well enough the reporting procedure.

If you were that 'bothered' in the 1st place about pony abuse, or is it you rather being beaten by a 10yr old in an open class? :rolleyes::rolleyes:
Your 1st post on this forum smells very nasty, why not go back under your stone eh? :rolleyes:

It my eyes a 10 year old child that was tiny on the pony anyway shouldnt be riding in a pelham if she cant get it on an outline or control it with out the use of a pelham then surely she shouldnt be riding it!

this has been reported to the PUK I felt sorry for the poor pony getting yanked in the mouth by some nasty little BRAT! just because the rider clearly wasnt good enough to get the pony to what she wanted it to do..... if she cannot ride it properly then it shouldnt be in a pelham and she most certiantly shouldnt yank the poor thing in the mouth...... Like I said I wasnt in the junior ridden as I'm far to old to do them! I just found the childs behaviour appauling
 
I know a girl that got a pony at around 10. Pony was a complete ******. They tried all bits and bobs. Now out showing she shows in a pelham. Pony is very very happy, as is the rider.
She's always coming home with rosettes, the only people that would be able to find a problem are people that are... wait for it... jealous.

If this girl was so bad why didn't you speak to her parents? A personal attack on a 10 year old online! Really!? :(
 
Ten year old children are now added to the list of people who can't ever make a mistake or have a not my finest hour moment on HHO.
Perhaps the judge did not see the incident ?
OP posting the details of the class in capitals was a bit out of order , ten is very young .

I personally think she only won the class because of who was grooming for her! pony didnt go nicely at all had no condition on and not a brillant example of the breed!

The details of the class I copied directly from PUK website - hence capitals 10 is young yes but she should no better than socking the pony in the mouth! LEG AIDS!!!!

Ok, everyones biting their tongues on here clearly, so I'll just come out with it -

You are a nasty, jealous, bitchy, horrible, bullying individual and I'm sure we'd all appreciate it if you didn't start frequenting this forum.

Capitals equals shouting on here ,
Glad a pony with no condition on won a class , about time IMO.
And as you where not the judge your opinion on It's type don't really count.

So that's part of the real problem here is it? You're annoyed that someones done well without 'buying' their way to it?

So what if they have 'zero' money? I have 'zero' money and I like to think I'm a nice enough person not to attack a young child publicly.
