Can I enter an in hand show with a clipped pony?

[benson21]

Donovan has had a very low belly clip, legs still on. can I still enter into an in hand show?

I, not aware of any restrictions on clipping for in hand..is it M&M...or any other class .

I took my hairy monster to an inhand show this time last year - and we got 2nd (i.e. not last anyway!!) so go for it I would say

Yes, there is no restrictions on clipping for shows. It is expected at this time of year

Sorry to hijack, I have a Welsh section a I'm hoping to show in hand ( just local stuff, for fun) but he's been diagnosed with cushings so may end up clipped all year round, depending how his treatment goes.
Is this a big no-no? His mane and tail are kept as nature intended

Fine for local shows I think, I took my late girl to a show, it rained all blooming day, she qualified for the veteran horse championship in the South west or something like similarly named that day, I was unbelievably proud, she was very much clipped as you can see, it was an irish clip and very obvious

Thanks Moggy, lovely mare BTW nice to see you with a big grin despite the obviously awful weather!

Another hijacker - just a quick question! (excuse me for my lack of knowledge on this!)

We were thinking about showing Red in hand this year - we think he is a Welsh B, but his breeding is completely unknown - does this limit the classes (if any) that we can enter?
