English Riders to the rescue =)

Yayyy english!

I am SO EXCITED!

If you had told me 3 years ago that in FOUR DAYS I would be riding Tino in an English class I would have PEED MYSELF LAUGHING!

--> See thats me =)

BUT ITS TRUE! We fitted Tino for a saddle, bought a PROPER (hehe) show pad, helmet, spurs, breechers, shirt and hunt coat.

We're only doing 6 classes at a local show. 2 showmanship classes (cause he is AMAZING) and 4 walk trot classes.

My trainer thinks he could place pretty high. He used to be the world champion =) And even after 10 years he still remembers some of it.

No he's not as pretty or filled out as he once was, but he has more manners and grace then most horses that show there.

But I need your help!

I've only shown Western all my life. What are they going to be looking for:

In my showmanship class
In my riding (seat, equitation)
In his frame/equitation
In his gaits/movement

I am just so excited! I cant wait!
