White or Red?

[Gotedz]

hi me and my friend are planning to buy a new show numnah for a black 11.2hh shetland x fell for a few walk and trot dressage tests and a couple of local jumping shows. We know usually for dressage you wear a white numnah but if we are aloud we were thinking he might look better in a red one?

For Dressage I would go for white, though jumping can be any colour, Red would certainly stand out and get you noticed! If you choose red, go for something else Red too, eg, browband, boots, tie, and as the pony is little you could probably get away with red ribbon in its mane for SJ, keep it simple for dressage though. Also, if the pony has been known to kick, people put red ribbon in their tails to let other competitors know, so that could also look good x

I bought our black pony a black numnah, thinking it would look smart, have also tried red, I was trying to avoid White, but to be honest, it really does look the nicest on a black pony

I think white would look smartest for dressage Deffo red for SJ or XC though! xx
