Hi I have got a 15'1 tb x cleavland bay mare 13 I was just wandering what showing classes I can do this summer in hand and ridden also what I have to wear and what tack she needs thanks
 
Happy to help - can you past a few pics of them so we can get a better idea, a good head shot and a side shot will do.
at 15.1hh there are various classes you can do but some classes require a hacking jacket (tweed) and some a show jacket.
I will be back with more info after i see pics :O)

If your just doing local shows, riding horse classes, riding club horse, if you jump you could do working hunter, in hand best condition, best turned out loads you can do, brown tack is prefered for showingno martingale or numnah unless its a discreet one that is the same colour as your saddle, tweed jacket shirt and tie, beige jodpurs black long boots, if you google large riding horse there will be some pictures of some being shown so you can get an idea of tack and clothing, although the pictures are of county level horses and riders but it will be along those lines.
 
Completly agree with the post above.
At local level they wiil be quite foorgiving if you dont always get things 100% right first time showing so do not worry we all start somewhere.
Also if you enter a class ask the judge for comments most will be happy to give you thier opinion sometimes they are even helpful....
Good luck and have fun :O)
 
You'll most definitely need a tweed, shirt, tie, navy hat, brown gloves, beige/canary jods, long black boots (or short boots & gaitors), cane/show whip.

Ref horse - pics are a must to advise really, but looks like from your avatar that plaited mane, pulled & banged tail and trimmed jaw/ears/feathers. Plain tack :)
