They all then walk trot, canter and gallop both reins and the championship is awarded. I also judged show hunter ponies, which don't jump, and are judged as a flat class. I had approx.20 in the 3 height classes. They are shown in a frame, usually in double bridles and must cover the ground. They are not show ponies, which are very fine and must float over the ground.
Show hunters have a little more bone.
Their championship is run the same way. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and will be back in July to judge native pony in-hand classes.
