IRL Mini horse show!!!!

Post by horsegirl008 »

Hey guys! I'm gonna be gone for a few days because I'm showing my mini in the VA State Fair Mini Horse Show! We're actually leaving in like 45 mins - super excited!!! I have my mini entered in 15 classes. Yes, I know, that seems like a lot but mini show classes are very easy. I have my mini (Ginger) entered in 4 halter classes, 6 in-hand jumping classes, 2 showmanship classes, and 3 in-hand obstacle classes (so kind of like trail). So, yeah. We're gone from Sep. 28-30, and I'll try to get on here and post my results when I get back - most likely on Friday evening or Saturday. Wish us luck! You all are amazing :D

Thank you all! We did very well! She did very good and seemed do love the in-hand obstacle classes!
On the Open Mini Horse Show day (yesterday), we got 4 firsts, 2 thirds, 1 fourth, 1 fifth, and 1 sixth! And today, the Youth day, we got 2 seconds, 1 third, and 1 fourth! In total we did 14 classes (I scratched one of the in-hand obstacle classes) and we only didn't place in one of them :D : Youth Hunter 13-18
Thank you all so much for your support and kindness!!!

Absolutely! I'm trying to find a mini horse show circuit that I could compete in but it's really hard because my mini isn't registered (and can't be registered because she's too tall :cry: ). We love the VA State Fair Mini Show because it's open for any minis, registered or not!

Ah, that sucks that you can't register. I'm glad you can compete there!!
