Firstly apologies if this is posted in the wrong forum. Looking for some advice of show turnout with a partbred native yearling. Would he be expected to be fully plaited and trimmed as a pb? Im used to full natives and using white halters so what is the correct bridle as I dont want to have to bit him if a rope halter is incorrect. He is gelded so not a colt.

Colts have to be bitted, but geldings do not. They are normally shown in a inhand bridle or slip. Make certain you have control! PB's are shown plaited . Good luck and have fun

A general question. I know PBs are normally shown plaited, but what if you have say a Fell x gipsy cob or the like that has huge feather, mane and tail and would look silly trimmed and plaited? The only PBs I've bred have been WB x D, which looked fine trimmed up and plaited so were, and I don't judge so I've never had to address the question.

I am putting my tin hat on, however if I was you I would phone your society and ask what they recommend. Also read the schedule of each show carefully, however all of the p/b classes I have shown in have been plaited.

I have shown in Welsh pb classes with a pb sec D coloured crossed with a traditional, shown in a white halter, unplaited as I would have shown if a full section D. In these classes you will get plaited and unplaited dependent upon the type of the Welsh pb. What type of a class is it?
