HUNTER IN HAND
1. Equipment:
a. English headstall equipped with any acceptable single-rein English bit (see ENGLISH
PERFORMANCE specifications) and that complies with appropriate equipment rules for the age
of the horse shown. Notwithstanding the above, English bridle is mandatory on horses two years
old and older and plain leather halter is required on weanling and yearling horses.
b. For horses one year old and younger, halters are mandatory. The halter and lead must be halter
of plain leather. The chain on the lead may be over the nose or under the chin; however, no
chains are allowed in the horse’s mouth and no lip chains are allowed.
c. The use of a crop or bat is optional.
2. Attire:
a. Attire of the handler should permit free movement. Color may be chosen to complement horse,
but should be conservative. Suitable attire shall be a collared polo shirt or collared dress shirt
(solid colored and either white or another conservative color), vest, tie and gloves (optional).
Dress pants should be loose enough in which to run. If a belt is worn, it should be a plain belt,
not of western type or style. Jeans are forbidden. Running shoes or paddock boots are required.
3. Class Conduct:
a. Horses will be judged individually on the triangle, following a posted order.
b. The horses will approach the judging area (A) and set up for inspection in the “open” position
(i.e. with all four legs of the horse visible by the judge standing on either side of the horse). The
judge shall inspect each horse from the front, rear and both sides. Transmissible weakness
and/or conditions shall be counted strongly against animals (See Rule 713.A.3.b).
c. At the judge’s request, the horse will then walk the small triangle ABCA. The horse will continue
on at a trot following the large ADEA.
d. At the completion of the judging, the handler will lead the horse away from the judging area. As
one horse leaves, the next one will enter the judging area promptly.
e. When all horses in the class have completed the triangle, they may be lined up for judges to
place, or “ringing” (walking in a large group circle around the judges) may be used.
f. An exhibitor may show more than one horse in a class on the triangle. In this case, a helper may
assist in bringing the horses back for ringing or final inspection.

stride and cover ground with ease in a flowing movement. Those moving in an
artificial frame with quick, short or choppy strides are not desirable. The hunter
should have an interested expression and an alert eye. Hunters must be obedient

on ability to sit correctly, hold the correct riding posture and control the horse on a

cretion can ask for the horses to halt on the rail and/or back in the line-up. Classes
are split by exhibitor. See Rule Sheet for acceptable tack and attire.
