∙ 12y agoDepends on what class you are entering it in! If you are entering your Standardbred in a hunter class, for example, you will need a very plain hunter bridle- no flashy browbands! In most English classes it is considered standard to braid the mane, and either pull or braid the tail. If you are showing the horse in a Western class though, you will probably want to leave the mane unbraided, but its a good idea to pull it just to make it look neater.
In terms of tack, I would really go by what class you are entering. For most English classes, a basic snaffle bridle, all-purpose saddle and clean, nice looking saddleblanket are common. Check with the show organiser whether breastplates and martingales are allowed for the class you want to enter.
In-hand English is a bit of a grey area, it really depends on your horses look. For a Standardbred with a very fine, thoroughbred type head, a rolled leather show halter can look very appealing, but for a Standardbred with a heavy head or 'Roman' nose, a thicker halter (an undecorated western for example) will look better. Once again, check with the show organiser if there is particular tack you need for your breed class.
If you are showing in Western classes then I would recommend buying a western halter. For events under saddle, you will need a Western or Australian saddle. A Navajo saddleblanket can look very nice in Western classes, and you can get different colours to match to your tack. the grooming standards for Western are quite different from English. The mane is generally left unbraided, but pulled and smoothed down with hair gel, and the tail is usually pulled but unbraided. I would recommend trimming the tail to just under the hocks, for a neater line, but it really depends on what will flatter your individual horse.
I cannot stress enough though, that it depends on what class you want to go into! Generally speaking you will need to clip a bridle path, but I'm unsure whether this is needed for all Western classes. If you put effort into washing your horse, braiding/pulling and helping him look his smartest with hoof lacquer and a little gloss, then you will be well on your way to having a show winner!

You only have to show your hand if you are going to the showdown against another player or players. However, you can show your hand if you wish at the end of a round, but this is entirely optional.
You do not need to show Rayquaza to anyone in HeartGold. In order to get Rayquaza, you need to show Kyogre and Groudon (from HeartGold and SoulSilver) to Professor Oak. In turn, he will give you the Green Orb. With the Green Orb in hand, you can find Rayquaza in the Embedded Tower.
its hard to explain ,You need a book to show your life line and the other important lines. SORRY!
When they say 'We're going to retire this racehorse' it doesn't mean it won't be ridden again, it means it won't be racing again. Retired racehorses still have a lot of life left in them, and you can surely still ride them! A retired racehorse may not race anymore, but you can still show them, or just enjoy a nice trail ride. So yes, Zenyetta is a young horse and has to be ridden for exercise!
