We have night shows here. But most of our competitors are children, under 18. My barn mostly has 7-16 year olds. In fact I am oldest competitor at 26 at my barn. They complained because the last show ended at 9 pm. I cannot imagine getting them to do a night show lol
I always explain to my lesson kids that the horses do worse in the heat for the same reason they do better in the cold than us- they run at a higher body temp, they're bigger and fuzzier. It's just unfair to expect them to maintain the same level of intense work as we ask them in the summer
Yeah I cannot do extreme heat. And will not expect my horse to do it either. I pay to do this, not get paid to do this. And I want my horse to be able to show in more shows, not collapse and not be able to show ever again lol. The choice is easy for me
I mean you do what you do for the sport you are apart of. But, when it is over 100 with 100% humidity that is super intense heat for me and the horses. So that is why we do not host any outdoor shows in July. And then awhile back the decision was made to not host any because it was just smoldering by then
Am riding to keep some level of fitness and ability to endure the heat, and also working the border collies for the same reason, so they can go and do the things we sign up for and not be unfit for them.
Lots of cold water hosing, cooling vests, water troughs for the dogs to jump in. ItÂ’s all good. Been competing thru the summer ever since I was 10, and proper fitness and management then the heat is not an issue
I have the fair in August, then one in September and one in October. Then I am done and thrown into the show lease pot for next year so I can start earning points towards year end awards
