Ok. Taking DD (8 3/4) to her first show next weekend. She has 12.2 Dartmoor who she rides very well off the leadrein.
Do we go for a leadrein class (8 and under) or first ridden (9 and under)?
I know pony shoud be "natural" and am pretty confident I have DD's wardrobe sorted, but what about Dpony. We only have synthetic saddle-no other option. Have a numnah that is discreet and saddle colour, but what girth do we need? Dpony is bay.
Also, may take my Dpony (in two minds following scarey rearing incident)
He's a Welsh x. Was hoping to do best cob / best coloured......should I plait? Do I need to pull his tail / can I plait? Best cob class includes show / family / working / traditional cobs. He has a pulled mane atm. Also, is it ok to show him in his ridden bridle, with a leather leadrein?
