 At some shows the judge may ask the exhibitor questions about the parts of the horse, horse management, the age and breed of their animal, and so on.The exhibitor is expected to provide a correct answer in a polite, confident and professional manner.The winner of a showmanship class is usually determined by a formula that varies by the organization that sanctions the show, but usually counts grooming and cleanliness for about 40% of the score, and the pattern and handler's showmanship for about 60%.
