HORSE Registration of horses will be from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday and will be released after the conclusion of the 4-H Horse Show. A stallion may be exhibited only in the calendar year in which he was foaled. Every year, ALL horses must have a current Horse ID form on file at the Extension Office by May 1st of the current year, before they can be shown at Fair. All contestants must show at least ONE HORSE in halter and showmanship classes. A single horse may not be entered or ridden in a class or event by more than one person even though the horse is jointly owned by two members of the same family. All horse exhibitors will also be required to meet attire requirements listed for Western type attire in the “Nebraska 4-H Horse Show and Judging Guide,” page 16. The show will follow the standards and rules as found in 4-H 373 which is available from the Extension Office, and/or late additions to the Horse Show Guide. Walk-Trot Western Pleasure and Western Horsemanship – Class is judged as a regular pleasure and horsemanship class, but participants will not be asked to lope. Any age division may pull out of their regular pleasure or horsemanship class to participate in Walk-Trot, but may not compete in both. All age divisions will be combined into one Walk-Trot Horsemanship class. This is a RIBBON class only and no trophy will be awarded. If you participate in the Walk-Trot classes, you are not eligible for All-Around awards. Reining – In order to participate in Reining, Senior Age Division, participants must have passed Nebraska 4-H Horse Project Advancement Level II by July 15th of the current year in order to show at the Fair. If not eligible to compete in Reining because of this requirement, then you are not eligible to compete for the All-Around awards. Champion and Reserve Champion Trophies will be in Junior, Intermediate and Senior Divisions of Horse Performance. Youth wishing to compete for the ALL AROUND horse award must compete on the same horse in the following seven events: Showmanship, Western Pleasure, Western Horsemanship, Reining, Trail, Barrel Racing, and Pole Bending. Youth may choose to use more than one horse in these seven events but then they will not be eligible for the All-Around. Points towards the trophies will be awarded on a 10 through 1 basis in each event for each contestant finishing in the top 10. In case of ties for trophy consideration, the person finishing highest in Horse Showmanship will be awarded the trophy. There will be a committee of three people (parent or leader) to supervise and assure that members ride the same horse in all seven events. This committee will also be responsible for totaling championship points and determining trophy winners. Grand Champion will be the top rider in the class. Reserve will be the second top rider in the class. This will apply to all classes (a class is made up of 2 or more entries) unless all class participants have a no time, broken pattern or white ribbon, in which case there will not be a grand or reserve champion. If there is only one rider in the class, the judge may place the exhibitor P, B, R, or W. For a class with only one entry, the Grand Champion must be a purple ribbon. Walk-trot Level I classes will be allowed to ride with two hands.
