Hunter Course - Exhibitors and Horse should portray the appearance of following an actual country course.  Jumps may
include a simulated brick wall, hedges, chicken coops, etc.  The pace should be brisk as in a trot or canter, but must maintain
the stride  throughout the entire course.  Three refusals will result in elimination.  Faults include knockdowns, and circling more
 than once.  Elimination:  Three refusals, fall of horse/and or exhibitor, being off course, or crossing own path.  Knockdowns are
also considered by the Judge when placing the class.  Jumps should be 20 feet apart and are  usually at a lower height than the
Jumper Course.  Hunter jumps  will likely be set at 24."  Hunter Classes are for mature horses. Course Walk-thru and
Demonstration before Hunter Classes begin.
 

Country Pleasure Driving Classes - This event is judged primarily on the suitability of the horse to provide a relaxed,
pleasurable drive in the countryside.  To be shown both ways in the arena at a WALK, SLOW TROT, and STRONG TROT. 
  Drivers will then be asked to enter the center of the ring and line up in a row.  Headers (Adult to stand in front of the Horse)
 may enter the ring at  lineup.  Each Driver will then be asked to reign back (Back up).   Clothing should be relevant to the drive,
women generally  select a long skirt or dress, and a hat and men a jacket and a hat, western or a sports coat and hat.  Driving Classes
 are for mature horses.


Race - There will be 3 Separate Lanes for each race with each Driver having their  own lane.   There will be cone or other
 object at each  end of the lane and the object is to circle to object twice with a steady trot.    The second break in trot will
result in elimination.  The first horse to cross the finish line without breaking a trot more than once will be declared the winner.  
 Additional races may  be required to determine Champions if entries are greater than 3 racers at a time for the Class.  
  Helmets are advised for all and are required for youths.  Racing Classes are for mature horses.
