Think its time people share their showing wisdom!

My top tip - wear washed out jeans, a untucked, unironed shirt and you SHALL be the champion in-hand! :rolleyes:

Sour grapes much and I wasnt even competing!
 
Umm... We've been so lucky not to run into any unfairness really. Aside from when the non-racehorse was entered in the inhand racehorse class and won because 'he was in the best condition'... No kidding, he was twice Reg's weight (eventing fit, and a chunky TB) and clearly NOT AN EX-RACER. Lol.
 
:mad: Oh yes how standards have gone down hill, some people spend hours getting their horse/pony ready for the ring, but then go and let the poor animal down by not paying any attention of their own turnout, after all its the COMPLETE PICTURE that counts, In Hand classes are by far the worst, people come into the ring dressed in almost anything, and without hat, gloves or cane and then wonder why they get placed down the line !

:mad:

In this case at the weekend it seems they got placed the highest possible place!! I should think there are many who were competing in the championship who were immaculate and also felt slightly more bitter towards the whole thing!! lol
 
The badly behaved 2 year old will still win champion even though he repeatedly reared and tried to kick it's owner in the head, then run over the judge, then kicked another horse.

But it's okay, cuz manners count for nothing ;)
