I have a purebred Arab gelding I will start showing in dressage this summer. We are schooling first with a tiny (tiny) bit of second, and I plan to show in intro/training at schooling shows to start, but as it happens there is an Arabian sport horse show I’d like to go to as well and they will offer Sport Horse Under Saddle and Sport Horse Show Hack classes.
Any experiences/advice to share? Would it be more appropriate to enter one class or the other? My gelding has experience at Arabian shows, but I don’t. The last time I competed in an actual horse show of any kind was in college, and it was IHSA (so at least I have experience navigating through traffic!).
Thanks!
