Calling All Draft Horse Breeders!
I am working to put together a Draft Horse only show, Simquestrian United Draft Horse Congress. This event will showcase all the events that draft horses excel in. This show will include both Draft Horses and Draft Ponies.
Depending on the amount of interest and approval a Show Bill and Dates will come in the next few days.
Breeding/Halter Competition:
This will be based on confirmation and will look for the horse that best represents their breed's standards.
Horses will be judged by breed.
There will be separate stallion, mare, and gelding classes within each breed.
Stallions, Mares, and Geldings will show in classes by age.
All Age Class champions will show for Best of Breed/Grand Champion Stallion or Grand Champion Mare or Grand Champion Gelding.
All Breed Grand Champions will show for Supreme Draft Champion Stallion, Mare, or Gelding
There will also be futurity classes for Colts and Fillies from birth to yearling age.
All foals will be judged by breed.
Futurity Foals Class Champions will show for Best of Breed/Grand Champion within each breed.
There will be a Mare and Foal class. (All Breeds)
There will be a Stallion and Three Mares class. (All Breeds)
As well as a Get of Sire class. (All Breeds)
All Draft Pony Breeds will show separately from the larger breeds and will have separate Champions, Grand Champions, and Supreme Champions. The show bill will also be similar.
Driving Competition:
(if possible or if anyone is interested) This class will be judged by how the team looks overall, the uniformity of the group, and confirmation of the horses.
All Breeds will compete against each other.
