Inhand means you are not physically up riding on the horse. You are showing them off while standing on the ground. A common name for this is halter or showmanship.
It's not really bad for most levels of showing, but in the AA shows you are not allowed to have rubber bands anywhere.
A pleasure horse is a type of horse that is used primarily for recreational purposes such as trail riding, pleasure riding, or showing in events like dressage or jumping. They are typically well-trained, versatile, and have a good temperament for riders of various skill levels.
A horse raiser is commonly referred to as a "breeder" in the equestrian field. This individual focuses on breeding and raising horses for specific purposes, such as racing, showing, or companionship.
Plaiting the horse's mane and tail is not mandatory but it is often done for a neater and more polished appearance in jumping competitions. It is a common practice to enhance the overall presentation of the horse and rider.
The change of a horse's gait is called a transition. This refers to the shift from one gait to another, such as from a walk to a trot or a trot to a canter. Smooth transitions are important for showing the horse's training and responsiveness to the rider's aids.
Horse racing came before horse shows.
in most shows, yes. walk, trot and canter and the movements during halter classes.

Most horses are shown in hand using a leather show halter specifically designed and made for that purpose. Training your horse to be shown is key, and taking a poorly trained horse into an arena full of other horses and showmen/women is dangerous. Nothing takes the place of adequate training.
In horse racing, "showing" means a horse finishes in the top three positions. This impacts the outcome by determining the payout for bets placed on that horse to show. If a horse shows, bettors who wagered on that horse will receive a payout, even if the horse did not win the race.
