What The Judges Are Looking For In A Showing Star
You’ve put in the practice at home, and you’ve been polishing your horse, boots and tack till they shine and the big day has finally arrived – show day! We spoke to top professional show rider, producer and judge Katie Jerram-Hunnable, to find out what the judges are looking for in your performance.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS COUNT
As a judge, you are always looking for that horse and rider combination that presents a beautiful picture as soon as they walk into the ring. They are beautifully turned out and step into the ring with confidence and that ‘look at me’ factor. Make sure that you and your horse are dressed correctly for the class you are riding in. For example, coloured browbands are for riding horses, show ponies and hacks as opposed to working hunters, hunter ponies, Traditionals, Hunters, Natives and Cobs. Doing your research and abiding by the correct dress codes can go a long way in presenting your horse more professionally. I always look for a horse with a pleasant walk at this point. One that has a good step and a horse that looks happy and relaxed.
