Well if all goes well with horse being back in work and dad fulfills his promise of getting me a trailer for my birthday/exams then I'd like to get out and try some showing classes.
Which ones though I do not know...
Any suggestions?
She's A 15.2 (15.1 and a half) Welsh Cob cross Anglo Arab and will be 14 in april..

She has a sarcoid above her right eye but this wil hopefully be gone by summer, would this be seen as a blemish?
Thanks!
 
Part bred arab and part bred m&m classes immediately spring to mind, as well as coloured or "odd coloured" classes that allow palaminos. Does she jump? Working hunter and riding club horse classes would be good options for her too.

The sarcoid would be seen as a blemish (some would penilise it more than others), but it's less of an issue in things like riding club horse and equitation, as in plain showing classes.
 
Most coloured classes now include Palominos (which is good news!)

If it's your first time trying showing it might be fun to do some in-hand stuff like Prettiest Mare!

Have a look because some Arab classes take Part-breds too I think!

I may be wrong though so I'd check!
 
Thanks!
I had no idea that having a bit of anglo arab in her meant that she was still classed as a PBA...thats cool

Her jumping was begging to iprove before her back injury and havent jumped her since then but will be giving it a go later on this week so maybe working hunter

Odd coloureds

Riding club horse

Best turned out

Working hunter - if she jumps well - though she is a little small

Veterns - some do 15+ others start older so you need to check

If she is gentle - family mount

Best condition

Fun classes like prettiest mare

You should be able to do part bred welsh/part bred arab classes.

Have fun and good luck
