Important Notice for Show Hunter Riders 📣

The Show Hunter Executive has approved a new qualification requirement for riders wishing to compete in the National Series classes at the Show Hunter Series Final Show this season.

The Series Final Show Committee may implement a condition requiring riders to have accumulated a minimum of 20 qualifying points before being eligible to compete in National Series classes at the Final Show.

Qualifying points will be earned from recognised classes in the same manner as they were previously accumulated for Horse of the Year (HOY) qualification. All existing rules relating to the earning and allocation of qualification points will continue to apply.

To assist riders with planning their season, qualifying classes will be clearly identified in show schedules.

However, if you require assistance or have any questions regarding qualification points, please contact Lucy – [email protected]

A list of qualified horses will be published on the Jumping and Show Hunter webpage and updated regularly throughout the season.

Thank you for your cooperation and support. Have a great season ahead. ☺️
