Small Hunter?

Just wondered if my cob would make a small hunter, as I'd like to try him plaited for the end of this season. He's a very chunky boy (ID part bred), and we'll say he's 154.5cm.

I'd think so, what 154cm in hands?? I dont do cm, lol.
He looks the right type. And depending on his height, then deffo.
And he'd look gorgey plaited up xx

Just found out he's around 15.2h, so i'd say deffo you could do it xxx

What about Intermediates if you are under 25?

Oh forgot to add at his height you still may be dwarfed in a small hunter class!!! I don`t know how some of them get away with their height certs!

Here is a side on one, not very good.

I am just about under 25, what's the criteria for an Intermediate?

Thanks for all the lovely comments too, btw!

I am pretty sure its the same criteria as Small hunter, although it is for 25 and under, you don`t have a ride judge and you are not allowed to wear spurs.

As said above, show instead of ride judge. And yes he would look small, our full up 15.2 was often dwarfed?

He is such a lovely cob though why do you want to change?
