There are two classes in show jumping, hunter class or jumper class. Hunter class jumpers are judged on style, it doesn't just matter if the horse completes a jump, it matters how well the horse completes the jump. Hunter class riders can be described as being very "proper", the courses are usually simpler and the riders are dressed conservatively. A London Ontario veterinarian would probably enjoy hunter class because it puts the emphasis on the horse and it's movement.
Jumper class is much showier than hunter class. If you need a break from your job selling Real Estate in Spokane WA then you will probably enjoy the challenging and vibrant courses that are found in jumper class. In jumper class horses are judged in more of an all or nothing manner. Style is not a factor, and the judging is based on whether the horse finishes the entire course on time and whether it attempts and is able to complete all of the jumps. While the standards for attire for jumper class riders is less strict than for hunter class riders there are still standards in place and the rider must be well turned out and will show better if dressed formally.
