Is he a gelding or still a colt, if he is a colt and kept entire he will need to be graded with CHAPS for HOYS qualifiers, BSPA for Royal international and TGCA to do TOYS, all separate gradings.

Once broken if goes over height 148cms for chaps Hoys will be ridden by judge, the 148 classes are huge very tough competition and are not ridden by the judge, the native cob trad horses classes are still huge but a third less than hairy ponies. So easier to get ticket if go over 148cms, not easy really but slightly less competition.
You can do any classes really at other shows whp/ lots but you are up against any type of horse and if judge does not like coloureds then its tough.
Coloureds are lovely but very hard work, If you get placed in a hoys class qual then you have really achieved more so than shp/sp classes as so many.
Go for it that type also have fab natures i have two and are both real gents. Good luck.

With a hairy coloured, those are the only classes you can really do, unless as mentioned before you can do some workers or side saddle. I have a native hairy horse and a bay hack, the hack can do (ROR< ISRT< Hack) soooo many more classes than the coloured  Also if you want to compete at HOYS level, there are only about 17/18 places at hoys in each of the coloured types, nnp, nnh, nctp, ncth, I dont know about the types you have had before and the number of qualifiers you are used to! But I do love my coloured boy!!! |
