B. Class splits for Halter classes will be determined at the
discretion of the Show Manager; however, it is mandatory
that all classes be split at forty five (45). Each judge will place
ten (10) horses out of each go round first through tenth.
Using the accumulated point system, the Top Ten from each
go round shall be designated semi-finalists. The numbers of
the semi-finalists shall be posted as soon as possible after
tabulation is completed. The semi-finalists will return to the
ring to determine the final Top Ten. Finalists shall return
for judging at a later time for selection of Champions and
Reserves and down to tenth place.
C. Driving classes will numerically be split as equally as possible
based upon the length and width of the arena, multiplied
by two, to determine the running feet of the arena and then
divided by 36 running feet per horse. Each judge will score
their top ten horses. Using the accumulated point system,
the top ten from each go will be considered as possible
finalist. The Show Manager will bring back the maximum
amount of horses possible per split, but not to exceed ten or
a number that exceeds the maximum allowable exhibitors
for the running feet of the arena. If final is run immediately
after splits, the paddock master will separate and send split
A into the ring followed by split B with the two minute gate
rule being strictly enforced. (Amended 02-11, effective 0112), (Amended 02-14, effective 01-15)
D. Championship shows will be judged with a three (3) judge
system wherein all three scores will be used in the tabulation
for class placing.
E. Show management reserves the right to judge classes in two
(2) rings simultaneously if suitable and necessary. When it
becomes necessary to use two (2) rings, they shall be divided
into halter and performance (single work classes). Each
performance exhibitor shall be extended all courtesy and
consideration with a view to affording them the opportunity
to show each horse in each class.
B. A horse entering the ring in the wrong order or have missed
entering the arena in the assigned order will be eliminated
from competition. It is the exhibitor/handler’s responsibility
to enter the arena in the posted order of go. Deviations to
the order of go may only be made by Show Management,
and only in the cases of extraordinary circumstances, i.e.,
use of two show arenas, broken equipment, etc. (Amended
2-26-05, effective 01-06)
