Reminders for Pony Clubbers

"Foxhunting's our sport
And we'll all have more fun
If we each know beforehand
What's "being done."

Let's all be dressed in proper attire
So that our hunt field will be one to admire
And girls--hair nets please--your flowing tresses
Are not for hunting--but for party dresses.

Don't arrive to hunt in an awful state
It's not being done to get there late
If you hack to the meet,
Remember the rule--
Allow time to be prompt
With your horse nice and cool.

Go speak to the master
And boys doff your caps.
Good manners are fun
So don't let them lapse.

To warn those behind you
That your horse likes to kick
Tie a red ribbon in his tail
It'll do the trick.

Don't sit there and chatter at covertside
Or you won't be welcome the next time they ride
But hark to the music the good hounds make
That you might learn quickly the course they will take.

Don't dash by others
At a fast going pace
This is a foxhunt
Not a horse race.

Don't speak to a hound
If he passes close
'Cause he's working hard
With his sharp little nose.

When you come to a fence, I'm sure it's not news
That the horse in front of you just might refuse
So allow time for this and for crying out loud
When you come to a fence--Oh, please don't crowd!
And remember
When taking a jump, if your horse refuses
Just turn aside without making excuses.
And await your turn 'til the others have passed.
Then try again, even though you are last.
Since hunting's a sport you must ride your best
But sportsmanship counts, it's not a contest.

Since you can't ride or hunt
Without a good horse
You care for your mount
As a matter of course.
When the hunt is all over
You rest him a while
And on your way home
You WALK THE LAST MILE.
