How big a show <G>?  My daughter used her trail/distance horse in a local
schooling show, and did halter and English classes, as well as hunter hack.
My daughter pops her Arab over jumps in our back field and on the trail; her
mare is a natural jumper.

At the same little show, I took my big, ornery Arab/walker, Nasty Chancy in
a few classes.  I chose the most unlikely class, the Western Pleasure, and
duded up with cowboy hat and fringed shirt, my Western Sport saddle and
curb.  For some reason, we got second in that class, and on the trail class,
which was held over natural obstacles ,we actually got first!!

Arabs are versatile; they do it all!
