Answer 1

sound fine!, but u can add first aid stuff for ur horse just in case!

Answer 2

that seems good!

Answer 3

add first aid for you and your horse you never know what could happen

Answer 4

You list seems really complete, but a few things I would add (just in case) are;

Tack cleaning supplies

A few good, big rags

A cooler for your horse (a wool cooler - not a cooler full of drinks) - actually you might want that for you :)

Safety pins (you never know)

A rain jacket

Possible a lunge line (not sure if this is something you require for your horse, but it can also come in handy for emergencies)

Shavings (I know they might be delivered to the show grounds for you, but some shows don't - just thought I would throw it in just in case)

A tool box with the basics (hammer, nails, wire cutters) - you never know what your stall will be like at a show

A chair for you

Don't forget your rulebook, a copy of your horse's health certificate and shot records, and registration papers (if applicable)

I can tell from your list that you are a very experienced show rider, but for those people that may just be starting out, I have written an article about getting your horse into show shape - http://www.ehow.com/how_2119065_horse-sh...

hope it helps people just starting out in the show world - there is so much to learn!

Good luck!

Answer 5
