Miniature ponies

I am thinking of joining the MHCGB and I believe you show your ponies in the American way, I read that when you are in the line up...head to toe that the judge checks the horses under carriage and the horses mouth, we are new to the mini's and do not want to look silly...could some advise if this is true and what is the judge actually looking for. Thank you

Yes that is true.

The mouth is to check the bite, to make sure they don't have an over or undershot jaw.

So does the judge just look under the pony or do they actually touch, I know this may appear a silly question but as a newbie's we are learning Thank you
