    I'm sure if you come here a cheering section could be arranged. :D

    That is fairly standard in breed-type shows, even if they are open schooling circuits. They're preparing for what is more common in the breed show rings, and for the all around types in the breed...

    If you're better at searching than I am, there are several recent multi-page threads. I can't find any of them when I search, but they have tons of suggestions if you can do better than I did!
