What are the requirments for a horse to be in a horse show?

Question

I need to know what the rquirments to be in a horse show are.

Answer 1

It is totally dependent on the class you want to enter!

If you want to enter a breed class then your horse must be the specific breed; if you want to enter a pony class your horse must be below a certain height; if you want to enter a novice jumping class then your horse cannot have won more than $x in prize money, etc, etc.

You really need to provide more details in order for a definitive answer to be given.

If you have a particular show in mind, contact the Show Secretary who will be able to give you the full list of classes and entry requirements.

Answer 2

I'm sure one could write a book on that question. There is just no short answer to your question since horse shows are so diverse, involving many disciplines, some open to all breeds, some breed-specific, some local, some regional, some national, some international, and the entry requirements and rules differ one from another.

Answer 3

A horse can be in a horse show of one kind or another as long as:

1.  His owner gets him there.

2.  His owner enters him and pays the entry fee.

If he's lame he'll probably be disqualified and excused.

Answer 4

HE HAS A TICKET.
