Dermots first show is on the 6th of May. He's doing the Inhand hunter type horse and Riding club horse *hoping the classes dont clash*

Trouble one is his combo winter rug has rubbed a section of his mane and after this point the manes not that nice. He'll of had two months for it to repair by the time of the show *Whats the chances

How does a plait-lette go about plaiting his mane?

Would he be wanting a bum pattern? If so what one? *Ignore first tail plait of the year*

If his mane doesnt grow back, use smaller sections for the thick part of his mane, and larger sections for the rubbed part; this should make you plaits around equal!

I made false plaits out of Mateys tail when he decided to rub out most of his mane. Annoyingly it was neither rug nor sweet itch just him being infuriating.
