Thank you so much! One more question.... what do i wear on my feet, its a low key indoor show, will i get away with long clean dublin boots??? please say yes!

normally people wear long boots under skirts dont have to be horsey boots or loafer type shoes with tights, for local level it should nt matter too much as long as u both look smart

I always used to wear Trouser Suits or Plain Trousers plus a Jacket and Hat which were colour co-ordinated.
Far easier than trying to run in a calf or ankle length skirt.
In M&Ms always aim to look "workmanlike".
I would try to get away from the norm - so many exhibitors look like clones these days.
Just remember that the Judge should be Judging THE PONY - NOT the Leader's Outfit.
