| The American Shetland Classic Pony Classic ponies are more refined, lighter boned then a Foundation pony. Classic ponies must have ASPC Division A papers but keep in mind that not all division A ponies fit the classic type for showing. Again ponies show according to type not what is on their papers. This pony has always been promoted as the perfect childs pony being known for a good disposition. Classic ponies should have free flowing ground covering movement. But they cannot be as extreme as a modern pleasure or modern. Movement without extension is faulted. Extreme motion is also to be faulted. Classics can be shod but in most cases are shown barefoot. Height Max height is 46" There are two height division for showing Over division classic 3 and older over 42 not to exceed 46" 2 and older Over 41" not to exceed 44.5" 1 year and older Over 40" not to exceed 43" Under Division Classic 3 yrs and older 42" and under 2 yrs and older 41" and under 1 yr and older 40" and under Classic maximum heel barefoot or shod including plate cannot exceed 1 3/4 " Below are some pictures of American Shetland Classic Ponies.
