Show Ring Style

Much of the art of successful showing lies in presenting an attractive picture to the judge. Clothes their quality and the way they are worn play a vitally important part. John Minoprio's superb photographs will inspire all exhibitors young or old whether riding or leading in-hand to achieve that essentially understated and professional elegance which will complement to perfection the quality of the horse or pony being exhibited. From leading-rein and first ridden pony classes through to the hunters hacks and cobs examples are shown of correct and stylish dress. Side-saddle classes are included as are well-turned out judges and the rules of dress laid down by the various societies are given within each classification. With its emphasis on style and attractive well-fitting clothes John Minoprio's aspirational book will encourage anyone who ventures into the show ring to do their exhibit justice.
