Information on large horse/pleasure horse classes?

Are the format the same for both?

If I have to do an individual show what would be the simplest on to do? I mainly hack and arse about when in the arena.

Are these American breeds? Not heard of large breeds, but American/foreign breeds shows often have pleasure horse classes either in English or western/traditional tack and costume.
The good news is that you don't have to do an individual show! All work is done on the rail (track) as a group except that you may be asked to rein back from the line up.

It's just an ordinary local show. No special breeds or western tack.

There is a possiblity you'll be asked to do a individual show I'd reckon. I'd reckon pleasure horse is meant for things that may be a bit less conformationally perfect but are enjoyable, well mannered rides. So you might be asked to show three controlled paces and a small jump? Large breeds possibly going to include clydesdale crosses, pures etc?
That's how I'd read it anyway. Why not contact the show secretary and ask them what is expected?

I should have made it clearer, large riding horse is 15.2 H up, S is 16 so we may look a bit small compared to the others!
