Coloured classes!!

[welshiewhiskers]

Does anyone know anything about showing coloured horses? i have my first show with my new boy, its not a coloured class however i want to wear the correct attire!

any advice very much appreciated

If it is a local show, you will be fine with a hacking jacket and shirt/tie or a stock and pin. Long leather boots, light coloured (beige or canary jodhs) a regular velvet hat with a chinstrap.....gloves.....I would go for brown ones/dark coloured ones myself.

Pretty much echo above ^^^

hacking jacket, shirt and tie, velvet hat (I think navy is correct) etc. As for the horse, just present correctly for type. I followed this when i did my first coloured class based on advice from here and came home with a nice red rosette

and was used as the example to the others of how to be presented. Good luck in your coloured class, where are you doing it?

unless you have a very fine riding horse/hack type of coloured! You should turn out according to type.
