Bring out those weanlings and show off your foals! Great way to get them out and start them learning about traveling and being around other horses. If your foal is not weaned, you can bring mom and have someone hold her outside the arena while your foal is being shown. Please prepare ahead and get them used to being separated for short periods! Class # 13 Walk - Jog Western is intended for those horses or riders who are not ready for riding at a speed faster than a jog. Hunter in Hand! Class #9! More than a typical halter class! Hunter in Hand (HIH) shows the movement of your horse and is judged solely on your horse. HUNTER IN HAND 1. Equipment: a. English bridle should be used on horses two and older. Decorative bridles and halters (silver or colored) are discouraged. Bridle should have egg butt, D-ring, O-ring or full-cheek snaffle bit (that meets ENGLISH PERFORMANCE snaffle bit specifications) with keepers, with mouthpiece that is round, oval or egg-shaped, smooth and unwrapped metal. b. For horses one year old and younger, halters are required. The halter and lead should be a halter of plain leather. The chain on the lead may be over the nose or under the chin; however, no chains are allowed in the horse’s mouth and no lip chains are allowed. c. The use of a crop or bat is optional. 2. Attire: a. Attire of the handler should permit free movement. Color may be chosen to complement horse, but should be conservative. Suitable attire shall be a collared polo shirt or collared dress shirt (solid colored and either white or another conservative color), vest, tie and gloves (optional). Dress pants should be loose enough in which to run. If a belt is worn, it should be a plain belt, not of western type or style. Jeans are discouraged. Running shoes or paddock boots are preferred. 3. Class Conduct: a. Horses will be judged individually on the triangle. b. The horses will approach the judging area (A) and set up for inspection in the “open” position (i.e. with all four legs of the horse visible by the judge standing on either side of the horse). The judge shall inspect each horse from the front, rear and both sides. c. At the judge’s request, the horse will then walk the small triangle ABCA. The horse will continue on at a trot following the large ADEA. d. At the completion of the judging, the handler will lead the horse away from the judging area. As one horse leaves, the next one will enter the judging area promptly.   D E Walk ............
