Show Circuit Basics

In “horse-judged” classes, horse must be owned by an MHA member.

In equitation, showmanship and grooming classes, the rider/handler must be an MHA member.

2024 Membership Application

If you show under a farm name as owner, it must be registered with MHA with at least one owner a current member.

Farm Name Registration Form

To qualify for year-end honors, earn points in your class/division at TWO different shows

NOTE: Double judged shows count as TWO shows: i.e. a ribbon in each class/division from each judge counts as a show.

IMPORTANT: If your class/division is commonly  held a limited number of times, MHA encourages you to contact Show Managers to lobby for inclusion of your class. Sponsoring (or getting someone to sponsor the class) helps also. The point system is based on the RATING of the show AND the NUMBER in the class.
