Hunter Pleasure
A class on the flat, where the horse's conformation and quality of movement are being judged. The horse wears only a bridle, and is lead by a handler on the ground. [Source: Wikipedia] Horses will be judged at the walk and the trot.
This class is divided into Pony, Regular, and Green divisions.
Posts are required for the Hunter In-Hand class from the horse only. Riders are not required for this class and will be asked to stay on the sidelines or outside of the ring as to not get in the way.
The horse should have a one-Furcadia-paragraph post prepared that details his or her movement, and the horse's description should be devoted to his or her conformation and turn-out. It is realistic to include a minor fault or two, and in fact, a horse with a subtle fault or two counterbalanced by some stellar qualities is more admirable than one who is unrealistically perfect in every way.
