In case of a tie for the final qualifying position
(except in Camas Prairie Stump Race and Nez Perce
Stake Race) all those tied will go forward to the finals.
In the event it is not necessary to run an elimination
round, the class will be run complete at the time the final round is scheduled. In Camas Prairie Stump Race
and Nez Perce Stake Race, if a tie occurs in an elimination round for the last position in the finals bracket,
those horses tied will re-run on time only with the
fastest time advancing.
Once an elimination round has been held, no
change of horse/exhibitor combination or tack/
equipment is allowed for the finals. In heading and
heeling, the entrant must have the same helper in
both the elimination and final rounds.
In most classes, when possible the top 16 horses
will be called back for the finals.
In showmanship classes, if there are 40 or more entries, elimination rounds(s) shall be held with the top
entries advancing to a final round immediately following the elimination rounds. Showmanship classes
with fewer than 40 entries will be finalized in one go.

AWARDS
RIBBONS & TROPHIES

In all ApHC classes, a Champion trophy is awarded to first place winners. The Reserve Champion trophy is presented to second place winners and ribbons

ESCROW OF AWARDS

All monetary awards will be issued pending notification of drug testing results. If a horse tests positive

AWARD CALCULATIONS & TIE BREAKING PROCEDURES FOR OPEN, YOUTH & NON-PRO AWARDS

Horses will receive points towards special open,
youth and non-pro awards for 1st through 10th place.
First place will receive 11 points, 2nd place will receive 9
points, and so on down to 10th place which will receive
1 point unless otherwise specified. If there are less than
10 horses in a class, scores will be based on the number
competing with the 1st place horse receiving one more
point than the number of horses in the class, the 2nd
place horse receiving 2 fewer points than the 1st place
horse and the 3rd place horse receiving 1 less point than
the 2nd place horse and so on down to last place which
shall receive 1 point unless otherwise specified.
Unless otherwise stated under individual award
listings, in the case of a tie in the open awards, the
horse earning points in the greater number of classes
that count toward the award will be the winner. If that
fails to break the tie, the horse placing 1st-10th over
the greatest number of total entries will be the victor.
In the case of a tie in the youth or non-pro division,
the youth or non-pro earning points in the greater
number of classes that count toward the award will be
the winner. If that fails to break the tie, the youth or
non-pro earning points in the greater number of performance classes will be the winner. If that fails to break
the tie, the youth or non-pro placing 1st-10th over the
greatest number of total entries will be the victor.
