So today I stewarded for the very first time. Although only 20 odd classes ran out of the 70 and less than 10 competitors. I still learnt heaps, and met some lovely people. Cant wait to get in the ring!

Sorry for being slightly off topic, but I'd love to know where everyone gets their foal slips from, and whether colts need to be bitted at such a young age?

Depends on how much you want to spend. Handsome brand have some for under $100 or you can get them from places like mal Byrne our similar saddler from $200 upwards. I think Carrington's bridles are a bit under $200 and are nice quality I've been told

if you're afteran arabian one i could point you in a few directions online.
mine was bought second hand, turns out i now know who made it too 
and no, weanling colts don't have to be bitted. check rules for show and society to determine age thye need to be bitted from, and also what age they need to handled by someone over 18

He's an Arabian Warmblood cross so has Warmblood sporthorse and Arabian Warmblood registrations, so he would probably need something with more substance then an Arabian one. I think he'd probably fit in a pony size but I'd like one that doesn't require a bit, any suggestions?

I'm a bit torn with this topic. I too have a TB who is 'girthy' (only when he isn't distracted  ). God forbid you try to even put your hand near his belly. Classic rangry chestnut emerges! BUT he too has been tested and checked over for this, that and the other; given treatments for ulcers and anything that could possibly be causing his little temper tantrums, to no avail. He did it with the previous owners, and always has done. It's just his way of kicking up a stink about SOMETHING (he's very opinionated like that ). So I can understand how the OP would be a bit upset that everybody is insisting and insisting that their horse is in pain, and that they aren't caring for it etc.
In fact I am 99% sure that I know the horse the OP is speaking of, and he was very well cared for at the previous owners, and they would have done EVERYTHING under the sun for him if his girthyness was caused by pain.
HOWEVER, in regards to the situation with the OP, the only way you'll be able to prevent it from happening again is if your mum toughens up, or she doesn't handle the horse anymore. Same thing happened with my TB, but he wouldn't dare bite any of us 'cause he knows he'd bloody regret it!
|
Yes I am talking about my horse chad, he isn't a nasty horse but also he isnt a cuddely horse and has always done this. With ME so far it hadn't gotten better or worse it stays the same and I'm sure no matter what it won't change, he may improven but I have a feeling this horse wont get out of this habbit

Sometimes the old owners think they know everything..
Just look at getting a expert out and go from there.

For who asked about the hand gallop - this was mine from yesterday
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYGT_SUxUk8
Most people only managed to get a few strides of gallop or just a very fast canter but they were just looking to see if you can identify whether you galloped or not and if you had control bringing them back.

Whether you get the trot you want or not will depend on how on the aids your horse is.
If you can't get the length you want he needs to be sharpened up to the forward aid.
It sounds like you have a good connection, the length should just happen if everything else is right.
Do lots of changes within the trot to sharpen him up and expect him to go as soon as you put the leg on. Ask, tell demand. Also described other ways but that's my way.

Step away from the computer, |

You could always just take your horse out for an outing to the show
No riding
Just to catch up on gossip from friends
From this you will see what its all about etc
I take my babies to comps or local shows just so they can see what its all about
its fun standing ring side not having the stress of competitions just chatting away to people etc
you and your horse will relax the whole day then you can mozy about load up and go home when you feel like it
you eventually might even have a ride around the grounds
