<< Sorry to wander so far off of the subject, but can any of you Arabian
owners answer my stupid question? I've had no luck elsewhere. What is
the appropriate mane turnout for Dressage/Hunter classes? I have just
purchased a registered Gai Marquis mare who I will be trailing and
showing in primarily open shows. Is a pulled short mane acceptable? I
have been told to pull it, but others have told me it is frowned upon to
shorten the Arab mane. Help! Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank You,

Becky, you can pull it though most Arabian folks do not. It's more common in
the show ring to do a French braid down the length of the neck.
