weanling show prep?

Ok so I just got this gawjuss new weanling 10 months old quarter horse pally, amazing conformation and breeding and want to start him in halter classes in several months in 2010.

I have never shown in halter so would like to know what they have to look like to you braid in QH halter class, do you clip, do you paint white hooves black any info would be great specialy bout how to prepare the mane

Thank youuu

I can answer no other question besides the hoof one:

White Foot/ Stripes = Clear Polish

Black Foot= Black Polish

Wish I could with the rest, but I'm not too great with halter...

You will want to band his mane here are a couple pictures to see what it looks like
