27Light Horse Class Descriptions
& Additional Information:
The following class descriptions are intended to assist your
general understandings of the classes offered.
Showmanship: A class designed to judge the showmanship
skills of the exhibitors. Judges evaluate the grooming and
fitting of the horse and expertise of the exhibitor in presenting
the horse. Each exhibitor is required to perform a pattern
designed by the Judge with emphasis on preciseness of pattern
and degree of confidence exhibited by the showman. This class
is open to light horse and miniature exhibitors.
Halter: Evaluates conformation of the horse regardless of its
breed. Halter classes are divided by age and sex. Horses are
shown with a suitable halter and are traveled before judges so
that lameness and quality of movement can be evaluated.
Horses are judged on balance, structural correctness, breed and
sex characteristics and degree of muscling. Of these, balance is
the most important.
WESTERN DIVISION
Western Pleasure: shown at a flatfooted walk, trot, jog, and
lope on a reasonable loose rein and on correct leads. Humane
bit, hackamore or bit-less bridle may be used. No running
martingale or tie down permitted. Extreme speed not required.
To be judged on performance 50%, quality 25%, and equipment
25%.
Reining: the horse should be guided and controlled with little or
no apparent resistance through a pattern of maneuvers
originating from moves that a cow horse would use in
performing its duties. The Rider is to guide every movement.
Pattern posted at least one hour before class,
28Trail: Judged by the performance of safe, sensible, well-
mannered horse over a course of obstacles.
Western Horsemanship: A class to indicate the ability of a rider.
Rides to be judged on seat, hands, ability to control and show
the horse. Results as shown by performance of the horse are
not to be considered more important than the method used by
the rider. All riders are to complete a demonstration of
individual work as posted at least one hour before the class.
ENGLISH DIVISION
Hunter under Saddle: A preliminary class for English riding
disciplines in which judges evaluate a hunter-type horse on the
flat, at a walk, trot and canter. Emphasis is placed on
smoothness of gait, free-flowing stride and willingness to
perform. Exhibitors must wear traditional English attire.
Show Hack: To be shown at a walk, trot, canter and hand
gallop. Collected and extended gaits to be called for. To stand
quietly. To be judged on 55% performance, 20% quality, 15%
conformation & 10% manners
Hunt Seat Equitation: Tests an amateur or youth’s ability to
ride–not the performance of the horse. As in western
horsemanship, contestants work a predetermined pattern
consisting of maneuvers such as changing gaits; travel in a
figure-8 pattern; backing up as well as posting on correct
diagonal and counter-cantering. Top riders return to be judged
as they travel the perimeter of the arena performing gait
changes at the judge’s discretion. Emphasis is placed on ability
to sit correctly, hold the correct riding posture and control the
horse on a precise pattern.
Hunter Classes: An event which demonstrates the gracefulness
of the horse as it maneuvers a course consisting of at least four
obstacles but must jump a minimum of eight fences. Manners,
29style of jumping, flow of strides, balance and keeping an even
hunter pace are factors in the judges’ scoring
Jumping Classes: Jumping is a true test of a horse’s athletic
ability to perform. Jumping consists of at least four obstacles
and a minimum of eight jumps. Scores are based on time and
penalty faults. Faults are assessed when a horse refuses to
jump, knocks down an obstacle, or causes an obstacle to be
knocked down. Horses completing the course without faults
return to compete in a timed “jump-off” to determine final
placing.
