Hi guys

This is my first time in the showing world! I'm panicking big time! While my yearling is only being shown for 'life experience' it would be nice to not look a complete idiot in the ring :)

My boy will be competing in hand hunter and sport horse classes and am aware of the differences in the way the classes are run but is there anything else I should know.

As I'm out injured, I have a good friend showing him for me and she's fully knitted out as is youngster.

My main concerns are, does he need to wear anything to say he's a Colt? Does he need a bridle number as well as the handler number and does the handler wear the number on her back or her arm? And will these rules change through the classes?

First outing is in 2 weeks...eeek!

Number on back, where most people will have it. No bridle number needed

What type of show is it? local? Affiliated classes (whether you are a member or not) normally need a stallion disk on the bridle, but that might just be NPS/BSPS - you'd need to check.
