Can anyone give me some ideas of what to include in a judge's mark sheet for this class.

Am organising show for RC and the person judging this is not experienced in judging this kind of class, so needs to be a sheet with marks out of ten for each section.

Was thinking divide it up in to Horse, Rider and Tack.

If anyone has a sheet that they have used or been judged with, i'd be soo grateful for some ideas!

Thanks T x

Well in my experience a condition and turnout class would not be judged on a show, just how the horse looks standing still or walking round. I have seen it being marked 60/40. mark out of 60 for turnout and mark out of 40 for condition. However I think 50/50 would be fine. In the condition section, i would consider things like conformation, manners, correct weight/muscle, horse is in good health, feet trimmed, happy horse etc. In the turnout I would include turnout of horse and rider, quality of plaits, hoof oil, quarters marker, clean tack and bit, smart rider, clean boots etc. and just the overall picture.
Hope this helps a little?
