At my first affiliated show my 15 hands and half an inch show cob looked like a shetland compared to the others in his class.
How interesting to note that in this weeks horse and hound theres an advert in the classified section for a 15.1 hh (LHC) show cob who is being advertised for sale because he isnt big enough for county level showing.
I thought 15.1hh was SPOT ON for showing. Have the rules changed????????
I hope someone from the BSHC Association notices the advert, maybe it should be commonplace for these allegedly 15.1hh LHC owning horses be measured on the spot (like a spot check drugs test) by an independant authority then the absolutely 15.1 horses dont get an inferiority complex and think they are shetlands!
I write the previous paragraph tongue in cheek, secretly I'm p....d off because I paid an awful lot of money for a show cob thats really a shetland when I could have got a shetland for a few hundred quid. (Not bitter honestly)!!!!!!!!!!!
