SHOW HUNTER CLASSES – SATURDAY 21 September 2013

For Ponies, Galloways and Horses three years of age and over

These classes have been created for the horse which demonstrates a bit more substance than that which is generally seen in an open hack class, but is expected to demonstrate the ability to provide a smooth, even ride and reliable temperament. The Show Hunter should exhibit sound conformation, be free from hereditary defects and unsoundness. It should demonstrate that it is sound in wind and limb but as it is expected to be suitable to carry its rider across country over a variety of terrain and obstacles, an honorable lump can be overlooked. The Show Hunters compete on the flat only and do not need to prove they can jump. The workout should be similar to that expected in an open hack class but should include a hand gallop and a change of leg at the canter. The horse must cover the ground in all paces, with the hand gallop being well balanced and moving from the shoulders, with the hind legs under. A flat and stilted action is unacceptable. Manners are extremely important and all misdemeanours should be penalized. Saddlery should be clean, neat and well fitting, but may be more workmanlike than normal for an open hack class. Bitting is optional.

JUDGING OF SHOW HUNTER HORSES, GALLOWAYS AND PONIES

One Judge will judge the individual Classes and Semi-Final. The nominated Show Hunter Judge and two (2) Judges from the Open Saddle Classes will judge the Final without any conferring between the Judges. In the Final Scores, only the top two scores will be counted. Complete Final placings will be released and will be displayed in the Secretary’s Office after the event. The horses eligible for the Semi-Final will be the five (5) horses equally placed from each Class.
