Our club holds in-hand dressage classes at our "big show". Just basic tests, serpentines/circles/showing extension/reinbacks etc, but the classes are ALWAYS popular. People have said that they really enjoy doing that class, showing off the partnership with their horse : And its great for people...

New Zealand has a market for taller horses... they are very popular here, and the B classes at shows are more often than not far more competitive and have more numbers. I myself only have B horses, I just prefer them (especially for driving!) and wouldnt hesitate to buy larger stock from...
