inhand bridle and loose ring rubber snaffle.
Don't use talc in the tail,dries it out and makes it horrible. I have 3 with white tails(I ask myself why!)
I'd trim under jaw line,ears(just the tufty bits to make them neat not clipped out like show ponies) and it's personal preference as to whether you take whiskers off or not, although it looks neater with them trimmed short(about an inch) or off completely,also tidy mane and tail but don't pull so it looks like you've pulled it(if you know what I mean)
Good luck,post pictures from your first show x

Go on the connemara site to find out trimming rules. Be careful not to over trim your boy
