Harness Driving |

| The following Harness/Driving
information is included in the hope of encouraging new
drivers throughout Australian into the amazing pleasures
of driving an Australian Miniature Pony in Harness. A healthy Australian Miniature Pony can pull one or even two adults in a cart. Driving is appealing because not only can the driver enjoy it, but their passenger can to. If you haven't (or not for a long time) you could try approaching other driving people. Most drivers are happy to offer help or advice if needed. The following information is provided for Australian Miniature Pony Society Inc. members as a guide, all ponies respond differently to training and it may be obvious that some ponies may not be suited to Harness Driving. Harness classes for Australian Miniature Ponies have become more popular in the last few years as they provide a performance option for ponies and driving in harness can be very enjoyable for both the pony and driver. Harness classes are where an Australian Miniature Pony pulls a specialist cart (such as a jog cart' or viceroy') with either a single driver or a driver and passenger. |
