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.
