You can make ground poles or jumping rails for Breyer model horses using inexpensive wooden dowels or rods purchased at home and garden stores and craft stores. Ground poles and rails are the basic props needed to create many types of fences for English performance classes such as English trail, English equitation over fences, and huntseat equitation. You can also use the same poles for Western trail classes too. These simple poles can be used in both live and photo show for model horses.
