This class is a qualifier for IPS Jim Lilley Working Hunter Final. Riders in this Class may not compete in any other Class with the exception of any other Lead Rein, Beginner First Ridden and Beginner Cradle Stakes Classes. In this Class, the Judge will be looking for a pony suitable to take its rider hunting on a lead rein. This is NOT a Handy Pony Competition but, in their individual show, ponies will be asked to negotiate small obstacles to a maximum height of 12” (30cms) such as bending poles, ground poles, zig zags, etc. A smooth and steady round suitable for the pace of the leader and ability of child is required. Cantering is not permitted. NO CROSS POLES allowed. First & second are qualified for The Mini Working Hunter Championship & The Purcell Cup.
No entries permitted on day of event.
Rosettes 1st to 6th place and thereafter, special rosettes will be awarded. In addition a Best-Turned-Out rosette will be awarded.
Thank you to all our Judges, Stewards and helpers on Show Day. Thanks also to all those who assist in preparing this chedule, the grounds, Show Rings, Jumping Arenas, and the layout of the site. We simply could not manage without their help and expertise.
