(IM beginning!!)
*Hunter Eq lvl 1*
Casey dusted imaginary dust off of her pale gray hunter jacket.She looked up, watching the class in the ring for a minute, then looking around the show grounds, inhaling the inviting smells of horses, leather, hot dogs, cotton candy, popcorn, and many other aromas drifting about the showgrounds hosting the Fall Kickoff Horse Trials. The blonde girl checked that all of her hair was in her hairnet, and that it was tucked neatly into the black velvet helmet and out of her blue eyes.Then, she gave her boots a quick polish with a leather condintioner that was in her bag of "show nessecities".Casey turned her attention to the chestnut mare standing patiently beside her, outfitted in a crisp, white show pad, her rich havana Pessoa show saddle with the matching rasied Pessoa show bridle, aslo havana. The mare, Love,Vengance, or lovingly known as "LV" tossed her head as Casey went to put a touch of vasoline around her deep chocolate eyes.Casey spoke softly to her, and the mare lowered her head, allowing the girl to put the vasoline around her nostrils and eyes, making them stand out and shine. LV's rich coat glistened from daily grromings and great care, and her mane and tail were braided neatly.Casey made sure her tack, and LV were ready to show as her class was called.Alright girly, let's go.she said softly as she rolled down her herm sprengers and lifted her elegant black tall boot and set it into the stirrup, gently lifting herself onto the mare.She gathered her reins and clicked LV towards the ingate, where many other riders waited, all around her age. One girl on a black gelding admired LV.She's beautiful!the girl said.Casey smiled.Thanks, she's a sweetheart, her name is Love, Vengance, or LV...your gelding is cute too!The girl laughed.He's a brat!But i love him!His name's 'One Lucky Star' or Star, and I'm Jenna. I'm Casey.the tennager replied, then the ingate opened and riders began pushing their way into the ring.The two exchanged a "good luck", then went and found a space on the rail in the neatly disked dirt outdoor ring. Casey focused on her position, soft hands, calf stretched down, back straight, sitting slightly forward, heels DOWN, head up, eyes looking straight....the instructions that she had told herself since she was three ran through her head again and again until the loudspeaker cracked then blared Judge, this is your class of Hunter Equitation Level 1, you are now being judged on the rail at a walk.Casey dropped all thoughts and focused on feeling.LV took to a spot right off of the rail, and they walked around calmy.Trot please, all trot...the announcer said, and LV picked up a sweeping trot, with the perfect Daisy cutter or hutner movemtent. Casey immediatly posting to the smooth rythem without losing a bit of form.They trotted around, the dogs barking, children shouting, cameras clicking, none of it distracted the star team as they moved around the arena as one.Walk please, all walk...Casey gave a little twich on her eins, and LV came to a calm, but forward walk.Canter, please show at the canter...The loudspeakers boomed, scaring a horse that Casey thought was Star, but she didn't look to find out, she just kept her perfect equitation as LV cut across the ring to avoid any contact with the spooked horse.As Casey went around the ring, she was relieved to see Jenna and Star cantering in front of her, and that the horse was another rider.Walk, all walk and reverse.The girl guided the mare with invisable cues, and the chestnut walked and turned easily, walking at an easy pace.sitting trot, sitting tort please.Casey smiled a bit, this was her favorite thing to do because LV's trot was so glassy and smooth, it was a peice of cake to sit to. She dropped her shoulders a bit, set ting them back, as well as her seat just a little, and LV slipped into a silky trot, one that Casey hardly moved to.Please drop your stirrups, drop your stirrups please.The announcer asked, and Casey dropped her herm srengers off of her elegant boots, her heels staying in the same exact spot, along with the rest of her body.Canter, please show your horses at the canter.Casey asked quietly for a canter, and LV transitioned into a rocking horse canter.Casey once again hardly moved, looking like an expert aboard her trusted chestnut mare.Walk and line up in the middle of the arena please, with your numbers facing the judges stand.Casey brought the crimson mare down to a walk, and lined her up where the announcer told her to.She ended up by Jenna and Star, and the girls talked quietly as they waited for the results.She didn't think they were still judging, but just in case, Casey didn't let her equitation position drop until the loudspeaker crackled and came to life.We have the results for the Hunter Equitation Level 1, and in first place is.........Casey held her breath, black gloved hand resting on LV's neck gently.Number.............Casey strained to hear the announcer as the loudspeakers crackled, and the announcer took a breath to say the name.................

Ok here goes... p.s. I have never actually showed so I really don't know how these things work.....so bear with me here....
*Show Jumping Level 2*
Zach arrived at the bustling show grounds a half hour before his first class. He turned off his dark blue truck and hopped out. He stretched and smiled at the beautiful day it had become. He closed the door and walked back to the blue and silver, one horse trailer. He heard Wildfire's anxious feet clattering against the rubber mat inside. Zach smirked and undid all the bolts, getting an excited whinny from his black gelding. Zach went around to the side and opened the door. He took the gelding's halter and snapped a navy blue lead to it. He clicked gently, and Wildfire immediately backed up onto the deep green grass. The beautiful gelding attracted attention wherever he went and this place was no different. As soon as he stepped out of the trailer people's heads turned to look at the heart-stoppingly beautiful gelding. His mane was neatly braided, his hooves polished, his tail looked like silk, and his coat was beyond soft and shiny. Zach gave him a pat. "Good boy." He said receiving a contented snort from the beautifully groomed horse. Zach undid all the shipping boots and tail wrap. He looked at his watch and smiled. For once he was actually on time! He tied Wildfire to the side of the trailer doing a quick-release knot. Zach walked back to the other side of the trailer opening the door with all his tack and show things. He had his white breeches on along with his white undershirt. He had black sweatpants on over his breeches and a sweatshirt over his undershirt. He quickly changed taking off his sweatpants and shirt. He replaced his sweatshirt with his crisp, new black show coat. He grabbed his dark red saddle, matching bridle, a deep red pad, and his velvet helmet. He walked out, and placed all the tack onto his patient horse. He did all the straps and buckles and in no time was done tacking up. He glanced at his watch again and saw he had 6 minutes 'till his class. He gave Wildfire a pat and hopped up gracefully mounting on his 16 hand horse. He gathered up his reigns in his hands and rechecked everything to make sure it was all in place. The girth was snug, his helmet strapped and secure, the bridle in place and oiled to perfection along with the saddle, and lastly Wildfire's mane and tail braids still in place. Zach trained Wildfire himself with some of Jake's help, so they shared this invisible bond, and they thought alike which was important when showing.
Zach saw the ring where he was soon to be in. He nudged Wildfire gently and he immediately obeyed to walk closer. Zach no more arrived at the edge of the ring when his class was called. Zach smiled at the fact that he wasn't late for once, and urged his sleek black gelding toward the edge of the ring. "Jason Dyckman is up first on Broken Wings." The announcer blared into the speakers. Jason's round was soon over and he had a total of 8 faults. He came out of the ring and did not look happy. "Hey you were really good out there." Zach said to him. He just glared back and walked his horse away. Zach just shook his head as the speakers crackled to life. " Next up is Zach Anderson on Chasin' Wildfire!" Zach showed regularly so almost everyone knew him as an amazing jumper. The crowd burst into applauds. Zach nudged Wildfire into a trot entered the arena. As Zach gave the invisible cue for Wildfire to canter the world slipped away to just the two of them.....as a perfect team. Zach estimated the first jump to be around 3 feet. I was a simple vertical with flowers underneath. He aimed his gleaming horse toward it as he counted down the strides. Three....Two....One, and they were over it perfectly. Zach let out a sigh of relief and aimed Wildfire toward the next one which was about 3'3". It was a brick wall with water on the other side. Wildfire was amazing at water jumps so Zach didn't even think twice. They popped over it effortlessly. Zach went to the next one which was about 4 foot and was a tripple bar with multicolored poles. They came closer, closer, closer and then they were over! Zach gave a quick glance and saw there were 3 jumps left. He aimed Wildfire toward the next jump which was a combination that was 3'2". As they were just about to take off Zach could feel the powerful muscles in Wildfire's hindquarters bunch. They were over it effortlessly. They were soon over the next one also without even touching it! Zach turned Wildfire toward the next and final jump........a 4"2' oxer. As they neared it Zach could feel the adrenaline rush from himself and Wildfire. They got closer and closer to it and at just the right time Wildfire picked up his hooves from the ground and tucked them neatly under him as they flew over the jump in no time. Zach grinned and gave Wildfire a long pat. He trotted back out of the ring and jumped off. He walked around to the side of the ring and saw the rest of the competitors go. Right before the last person went a little girl stopped him. "WOW CAN I HAVE YOU AUTOGRAPH!?" She asked with wide eyes. It was only a 7 maybe 8 year old girl but it still made Zach smile. He took the pen and signed the paper. "Thank-you!" The little girl grinned and ran off to show her mom. Zach looked up and saw that the last person just got done. He waited for the results.
