Perhaps you should look more closely at the hunting field. A lot of top show hunters and riding horses are taken hunting regularly. I know plenty of ponies who show and event (one even came second at Hoys)
A friend successfully showed and hunted her horse but she put a lot of effort into to piling on the pounds once March was over. He whipped in all winter, and was as fit as a butchers dog, but then had to be fatted up to enter the showring. Bizarre!
