My friend who owns the andalusians and arabs has a plan to get me showing the smaller mares under saddle in a year or so! Because my friend who's his groom is a terrific rider but will look underhorsed, I'm their project simply because I'm small! I'm not sure if we'll be showing in-hand the mares with foals at foot this summer, but I hope so. As well as my formal lessons I'm being taught proper grooming and show preparation, I've only just finally solved the mystery of dealing with all the straps on the blinking rugs they wear!
