Tests offered: Intro through Grand Prix, including all levels of MFS (riders must bring their own boom box.) All classes, in- cluding Intro to be held in a standard/large arena. Chapter Challenge: In addition to the individual class placings, there will be a chapter challenge using the scores from the individual classes, except that MFS scores will not be used for purposes of the chapter challenge. Each person entering the show will be asked to designate the chapter they are riding for on their entry form. To be eligible to participate in the chap- ter challenge, a chapter must have a minimum of 3 riders (can either be riding 1 or 2 tests each.) At least 1 of the 3 riders must show at or above 1st level, and no more than 1 out of every 3 riders per chapter can show at Intro. If there are more Intro riders entering than are allowed, members riding for the chapter will be decided based upon the date their entry was received. If a chapter has less than the minimum number of riders, or they are not showing at the required levels, the riders may still enter the show and compete as individuals, but the chapter will not be eligible to participate in the chapter chal- lenge. Similarly if there are more Intro riders than allowed for a particular chapter, these riders can enter and compete as individuals, but will not be representatives of their chapter for purposes of the chapter challenge placings. To determine Fi- nal chapter placings, scores of all designated chapter riders will be added together and divided by the number of rides to de- termine the chapter average.

No bedding is including, bedding is available for purchase at $8 a bag is you notify the show manager by Wed 8/15 or you may bring your own. Mucking out not required upon depar- ture.

"The rider is always the one at fault; never the horse" Dr. Uwe Schulten-Baumer, Olympic trainer " If a horse has too much bend in his neck during the shoulder-in, try this correction: As you come around the corner, let him think he is going onto the diagonal but ask him to do shoulder-in down the long side instead. First try it on the track and use the wall. Next try it on the second track." Lisa Wilcox US Olympic and WEG Team Member "Stay soft with your hands. Your horse has to feel the hind legs come under and that that he is not trapped. With the half-halt, he real- ly has to step into your hand" Princess Nathalie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, Danish Olympic Rider "In the walk your horse must be 100% sensitive to the leg aid, and stay away from that little kick, the kick gets attention but it is bet- ter to close the leg, and if necessary, a touch with the spur. Think about a one-second aid, a calf driving aid - with the spur the emer- gency aid. In the warm-up you are not just working on their muscles - it's relatively easy to get a horse fit and strong, more important is that he 100% understands what is wanted." Steffen Peters, US Olympic and WEG Team Member "If a horse fidgets with his head, don't react or pull. Stay quiet. If the horse tosses his head a bit, he's saying that his muscles are sore. But he's got to get through the work that day. So keep your hands low and ask for more bend to stretch the soreness out of his muscles. Never lose the rhythm. Keep your inside leg deeper to stay in a driving position. Keep the hands quiet and constant." Ernst Hoyos, for- mer trainer at the Spanish Riding School of Vienna "Lots of riders keep riding, riding; it is better to do nothing and really feel what the horse is doing, then you can react. Lots just ride and ride, and don't feel what the horse does.

The world was captivated by the young Western Sports 34 woman with the dazzling smile and her dancing horse. The YouTube clip of their Freestyle performance has since had over 1.7 million views, and Dujardin is considered the dominant dressage rider of her era. When Valegro Driving 34 (affectionately called “Blueberry”) retired from competition at the end of 2016, his farewell performance at the Olympia Grand Hall sold out and the dark bay Endurance 34 gelding received a standing ovation. Dujardin began riding horses at the age of two, but dressage was the domain Care & Health 35–36 of the rich—not the life a girl from a middle-class family was born into. Her parents sacrificed to give her as many opportunities as they could, and she Horse Psychology 36–37 left school at 16 to focus on equestrian competition. It was at 22, when she was invited to be a groom for British Olympian Carl Hester, that she met the equine partner that would change her fortune.

  • The Washington International Horse Show Sets an Example for Older Riders! - Washington
    The Washington International Horse Show sets an example for older riders! - Washington... Page 1 of 2 Print Close [x] The Washington International Horse Show sets an example for older riders! Age doesn't have to slow horse riders down Credits: http://www.flickr.com/ph otos/australianshepherd s/3620593635/ Achieved at age 54, Nick Skelton’s impressive wins at this year’s 53rd Washington International Horse Show at D.C.'s Verizon Center were heartening examples to riders who are no longer in the flush of youth (yours truly being one of them!). We don’t have to hang up our spurs just yet. Skelton won the $25,000 Puissance on Unique, a ten year old Dutch warmblood bay gelding on Friday, 28th October, 2011 when they cleared the 7’ wall. He followed this up with another huge win on Sunday, 30th October and took home the largest purse of the show, the $100,000 President’s Cup Grand Prix CSI 3*- W class. He was on another ten year old, this time a Holsteiner gray gelding, and bested a field of 24 entries. Not only is Skelton beating much younger riders, but consider this fact. In 2000 he suffered severe neck injuries after a fall at a show and was told by doctors that he should never ride again, as another fall could prove fatal. Eighteen months later he was back in the saddle, and look at him now! Here are some other well-known veterans for whom advancing age has been no obstacle to riding at the highest Advertisement level.
