want to take my pony hunting

[gally]

as it says in the title, but i have never been before and would not know where to start. I keep my pony in middlesex (osterley area) but am willing to travel, is there somewhere i can look to see where the nearest hunt would be?. What would the attire be for myself? I have a brown tweed or a dark green showjacket, a showshirt and a normal shirt and tie, jodh boots and gaiters and a skull cap with a black velvet silk.

Galaxy would have to go in his dutch gag as he would be too strong, and also can be a handful in large groups (but i can control him, is this acceptable?.

Also he is also 13.2hh NF and has been kept in his natural state (mane down to his shoulder), would this need to be plaited and what do people do with tails?. He also jumps 2ft6-2ft9 comfortably do hunts have groups that only jump up to a certain height (i have a feelin i might need a kiddies hunt)

Also any rules that i should know

Sorry so many questions i just don't know where to start so thought i would ask the experts, please help me i really wanna go
