Special Equitation Classes

 

EQUITATION CLASSIC FINALS WARM-UP                                  CLASS ENTRY FEE: $10

Open to any horse or rider.  A rider does not need to be qualified for the Equitation Classic Finals in order to participate in this warm-up class.  Additional rounds of the same rider will not be judged.  The course will be an equitation course at the same height, in the same ring, over the same jumps, incorporating similar turns and elements as the finals, but is not the exact same as the actual course for the finals.  No test or flat phase will be included.  Fence height will vary and riders may do their warm-up at a different height than their actual finals course, if they choose.  This class is not recognized by MIHJA.

CLASS 900            EQUITATION CLASSIC FINALS WARM-UP

 

HUNTERMARK EQUITATION CLASSIC FINALS                         CLASS ENTRY FEE: FREE

Riders who have placed in at least one equitation over fences class at Huntermark during the current show season qualify for this class.  Riders will be scored on their flat and jumping performance, turnout of horse rider, and tack, and their answers to three horse-related questions.  The flat phase will be done without stirrups.  Jumping Phase = 30%, Flat Phase = 30% (20 point penalty if stirrups are used), Turnout Phase = 25%, and Question Phase = 15%.  Fence height in the jumping phase will vary based on the highest the rider has shown in equitation over fences classes at a Huntermark show this year.  Riders whose highest equitation class was held in Ring 1 will do their jumping phase in Ring 1.  Riders whose highest equitation class was held in Ring 2 will do their jumping phase in Ring 2.  No martingales in flat phase.  Unlike most Medal classes, riders MAY use different horses on the flat and over fences, and horses may be ridden by more than one rider.  This class is not recognized by MIHJA.   http://www.HuntermarkFarm.com/eqfinals.htm
