If you want your horse looking his best, then there’s no better place to turn for advice than the showing world.
We went to the yard of top showing judge and producer Lucy Killingbeck to find out all her tricks of the trade, as well as straightforward advice about rugging your horse and keeping him comfy.
In the first three videos of her series we looked at conformation and tack (see links below). Here you can find out about your horse’s turnout including videos on plaiting, whisker and tail trimming, tail pulling and some great quartermarks!
Then watch out for future videos on showing and how to present yourself at a show.

Part five
No hairy-mary’s allowed - so get trimming his whiskers and tail.
