Hi,
I have recently been told that my horse would do well in sports horse classes but it's not a class I've ever competed or even watched before!
I've tried Google for some clues but can't really find anything.
I know my horse will need to be trimmed,plaited and tail pulled but what tack would he have to wear? Would he need a plain browband or a coloured?
For myself I'm assuming dress would be similar to riding horse classes....tweed jacket,tie and biege/fawn breeches...but would it be okay to have velvet on jackets collar?
Lastly what would we be expected to do in the class? Would it be the normal walk, trot, canter and individual show or would there be jumping involved?
Sorry for all the questions but the only way to learn
