Hi guys!

I know it's a while off yet (If we get there) but i'm really interested in showing Missy after watching the classes at Kilnsey Show today!!
I have tonnes of questions for you all so i'm sorry in advance!

With her being a dartmoor hill pony and thus not a registered breed or purebreed would she still be okay for some shows?
What do I need to wear?
Would she be okay in a leather inhand bridle?
How does she need to be turned out?
And what classes can you enter with a crossbreed?

Some photo's to help! :)

Do coloured classes with her. She is not a native pony but you might get away with it at riding club shows - check with the organizers first.

Yup shown in a leather in-hand bridle or leather filly slip if you dont want to bit her.

Thank you, I bought a leather inhand bridle and leather chain leadrope (not sure of name) just don't have a bit!
What would I have to wear and how would I present her?

(Planning in advance here)
 
For you clean cream or beige trousers shirt tie hacking jacket and hat
Pony a neat well fitting in hand bridle with a rubber straight rubber bit with brass rings a couple of quid from robinsons
Classes part bred, (pulled and trimmed)
coloured native type no pulling or plaiting required
Ridden pony
driving pony
at local level probably would get away with unregistered mountain and moorland classes too although you may well struggle to beat a registered one
She is very pretty and I am sure you will have the best fun
