It is impossible to evaluate whether a horse is a bad shower at level 1L because it's all about luck--basically a coin toss.

If you like her looks, I would hold onto her and keep showing her.

@Best friend, I am no expert but I would suggest holding on to her if she is what you want. She is still very young and until she reaches a higher training level, she won't compete in higher level shows. Right now she has a 50/50 shot at winning her classes - not the greatest odds.

If you want to, I would suggest having her PT scored. If she has a lower score than her sire and/or dam then that might indicate less quality as a show horse. As far as I understand it, PT score has nothing to do with breeding ability. The only way to know if she will be better as a broodmare is to wait and test her out as a broodmare.

I hope that helps make your decision easier. :)

Just PT scored her and she did better than both her parents. She got a 10.1 so I will definitely give her time.

Best, I was reading your response and I think you are indicating you were concerned that she isn't showing at higher than 1L level. Foals don't train at all until they turn 2, so they can't progress up the show levels. Some players don't show their foals at all because of that.

Jist in case your not sure about future horses heres what i try to do. I always keep intact horses and judge their show carrier until their 5 sometimes up to 7if I'm having a really hard time culling. I don't have extra money to PT most of the extras so I take the long way round.
