The theme for my yard shows best turned out is racehorses, so they are expecting racing colours etc! However just can't think of anything but matching colours to do, I'm not great at sowing but willing to give it a bash, have a number to sow onto a saddlecloth.

So any ideas (though not sure buying a racing saddle is an option, even if that would go down well hahaha!)
 
Get one of those wierd orangy rubber things that go from brow band down middle of face, then to either side of bit (in an upside down Y shape....)
 
Have blinkers actually that I bought for the headshaker I rode! could see if Pickle would accept em! Bailey didnt mind them at all! ah australian noseband thing isnt it?
 
You could take it from another view point and do fancy dress as a disc jockey. Racing colours for yourself and a big saddle cloth or rug covered with cds.
 
Orange thing is a australian noseband. Do you have or can you get orange rubber reins? Also can you get a newmarket rug? I know its hot but when it isnt needed just tuck it up under your bum (if you are riding). If you are anywhere near me you could borrow mine. Have you to dress up?
 
Could you rope in someone as a groom with groom-like attire, and you dress as the posh lady owner, with fancy hat as one might wear at Ascot, glass of champers, racing binoculars round one's neck, high heels (chunky wedges or you'll sink in) , and wafting a race card?
