Product Description

Synopsis
This is a practical guide to the art of showing Britain's native ponies, in both ridden and in-hand classes, based on Jenny Morgan's experience and considerable success in the world of showing. The breeds featured are: Dales pony; Dartmoor pony; Connemara pony; Exmoor pony; Fell pony; Highland pony; New Forest pony; Shetland Pony; Welsh ponies and cobs. Jenny Morgan outlines the points of conformation and the special qualities of each of the nine native breeds, so that riders and handlers are in no doubt as to what the judge will be looking for in the show ring. Advice is offered on finding and buying a suitable pony, and on handling and training young stock. There are tips on show preparation, correct tack and turnout, and on the all-important matters of presentation and ringcraft. Also included in the advice are a number of showing's "unwritten rules" which can help to make presentations more professional.

5.0 out of 5 stars The only book for success with Native Ponies, 23 Sep 2000
By A Customer
Jenny Morgan is an experienced producer of Native ponies for the show ring and this shows in the text of this book. She writes for the novice producer, but gives valuable tips for the experienced person as well. Starting with a clear description of the various breeds, she goes on to recommend which breed you might buy for any given purpose. She covers the training of the young pony, always bearing in mind his final expected job.

The show is described in detail, giving useful information about planning your day for maximum enjoyment and minimum hassle. Details of the classes and how to particiapte in them form a comprehensive section.

Care of native ponies at work and at play is covered, together with provisions for old age and illness.

The style of writing is user friendly, with non of the formal text book style of many horse books. There is also the odd humerous aside, which ensures that the reader knows that this author is only human!

Altogether a book which should be on every horse lover's book shelf.

3.0 out of 5 stars good as far as it goes but needs more., 4 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This book has some very good tips but I want more. To justify buying it more content was needed.We have put some advice into use but felt that much of the information can be got elsewhere in general horse/pony. Looks nice on the book shelf.
