Report: ALBC’s Instructional British
Rare Breed Show
In the Breeds Barn Arena at the Kentucky Horse
Park, Lexington, KY, Friday, June 20, 2003
This competition took place on the first day
of the three-day rare breed event designed to complement “All
the Queen’s Horses.” The classes displayed
British horse and pony breeds which are rare or endangered
either
globally or in North America.
As far as possible, the show was
judged
against British Native breed standards with the
proper salutes, turnout and patterns. Our British
judges
placed the classes and openly gave live commentary
and information to the audience and exhibitors
as they did so. However, to
avoid any embarrassment, private comments to exhibitors
were made with the microphone turned off.
Ribbons
were awarded to all participants as well as to prize
winners.
The pony breeds in particular were very well represented,
and it was very pleasing especially in the ridden
classes to see the effort that the exhibitors had
made to present themselves and their animals in British
style. Tweed jackets, jodhpurs, velvet caps, shirts
and ties were correct throughout.
