Presentation
of Mares and/or Foals
Handlers should enter when the jury
indicates, and bring the horse to stand in front of the jury with
the left side toward the jury. The handler should stand in front
of the horse and position the horse in an open stance which allows
the jury to see all four legs. The handler should, of course, be
aware of the safety of the jury.
When the jury indicates, the handler should
lead the horse at the walk straight away from the jury and
from the end of the triangle, return to the jury. Both horse and
handler should "stride out", the goal being to show good length of
stride and correct rhythm. The reins should be carried in the
right hand. Horses should be turned to the right with the handler
staying on the outside of the horse.
When the jury indicates, the handler should
lead the horse at the trot in clockwise direction around
the triangle. The handler should be able to run with enough speed
to match the natural stride of the horse. The goal of the handler
is to present the horse to its best advantage - there are no
penalties for breaking gait, not staying on the triangle, stopping
or not stopping at the end of each side. |
Mares with weanlings on side should
be brought to stand in front of the jury first. The weanling
should be on a halter and have its own handler. When the jury
indicates, the handler may turn the weanling loose. The handler of
the mare should lead the mare at the trot in clockwise direction
around the triangle. The weanling should stay inside and trot
loose on the mare's side. It is the goal to show the weanling to
its best advantage at the trot. The mare will not influence the
judgment of the weanling. There are no penalties for breaking
gait, stopping, turning around etc. of the weanling during
presentation.
In general handlers should not be overly
sensitive to advise from the jury which is aimed to the best
possible presentation of the horses. Owners should consider to
hire a professional handler (available at most inspection
sites) if they are not experienced and comfortable in showing
horses.
As a courtesy to the jury and the
spectators, handlers and anyone who will be entering the ring
should wear a green ISR shirt or red OLDENBURG shirt or
your 'all one color' farm shirt and white pants or alternatively
white (ISR) shirt and dark blue pants. (to order
ISR or OLDENBURG shirts). We suggest comfortable running
shoes. All horses should be properly groomed and braided
(weanlings optional).
