Do any of you show at County level?
Whats the process - i.e. do you have to be a member of the breed society the horse is registered with etc.
What are the requirements for horse/handler?
Am thinking of taking Blossom to a county level show next season (most likely Three Counties) and need a few tips
She's registered/passported by the WPCS. I'd be looking at taking her in M&M/Welsh inhand classes, possibly one ridden M&M class just for experience

It depends which classes you wish to enter. If you are going to a county show which doesn't have qualifying classes (eg HOYS) then you often don't need to be a member of a society. Three Counties has ridden HOYS qualifiers though and to enter them you need to be a member of either NPS, PUK, BSPS or the appropriate breed society. If you enter the inhand section and it is affiliated to NPS and offers a silver medal, then you need to be a member in advance if you are lucky enough to win and go champion or the lovely rosette will be passed down the line. Personally, if you haven't already done so, I would try going to a few smaller shows in advance. A HOYS ridden class isn't IMO ideal for someone new to county showing, and I'm not sure if Three Counties has a novice section - but someone on here will be able to keep you right on that.
