Showing tack - racehorse class

[H-J]

Im taking Dougal showing at the weekend in an ex-racehorse class and need some help with tack.

I can go with my black dressage tack (dressage saddle) or my jump saddles and bridle whih is brown. I know brown would probably be more correct but a jump saddle probably wouldnt.

Any help appreciated!!

Depends how forward cut your jump saddle is? Look at both saddles and see which shows him off the best. Remeber the judge will have to ride, and may not want to gallop in a dressage saddle!

I would go for the brown jumping saddle - Many Judges will not like a dressage saddle

Kat is correct. With this type of showing go with whatever suits him best and shows him off to his best advantage. Brown is more correct but how forward is the saddle?

Good luck and have fun!
