Miniature Horse show event - LibertyAug 27, 2010
A favorite event at miniature horse shows across the country is the "Liberty" class. In Liberty, the horse is released in the show ring by its handler and allowed to run freely around the ring, accompanied by lively music. The horse is judged on how it uses the entire arena, displays all gaits, and how well its movement fits the music (or vice versa). After a minute and thirty seconds, the music is stopped and the handler has only another 90 seconds to catch the horse. Shown here is Beloveds Hallelujah Creation at the 2007 Silver Jubilee AMHA show in Springfield, Ohio.

Duncan: Sussex County Horse Show, 08/08/08Aug 27, 2010
Duncan and I showed in the Pre-Adult Jumper division at the Sussex County Horse Show today--the first time I ever showed a horse of my own in an A-rated horse show! My primary goals for us were to a) continue to build confidence in the schooling ring (land of chaos, where Duncan constantly believes he will be smashed into), b) take a bolder approach to the courses, encouraging him to be in front of my leg more consistently, c) remember my courses without having to make corrective turns, and d) keep my position as consistent as possible. I feel that we accomplished all of these goals--we had some horses cut us off in the schooling rings (even, at times, when there was about a football field-sized area to turn in...they always turn in front of me! argh!), and while I could tell he wanted to jet one way or another, I reassured him that we'd survive, and he believed me. I remembered all of my courses just fine, and while I'm certainly not perfect, I feel my position is more consistent than it was in the previous show. Duncan was considerably more forward at this show; at times, he was acting the way he does at home when he's having a hyper moment. We got a funky distance to the red and white oxer in our third course, and he let me know by doing some mini-broncs on our approach to our next jump. I'm just glad he tuned back in and let me refocus him in time! We still have some funky lead stuff going on at times, but he did manage to do a complete change at the end of one of the ...
