A TnSHA Show
Our shows are ASHA-approved events and include 4 classes, in which each rider performs individually:
- Stock Pleasure: This class serves to measure the ability of the horse to be functional and a pleasure to ride while being used as a means of conveyance from one task to another. The horse should be well-broke, relaxed, quiet, soft and cadenced at all gaits and should be ridden on a relatively loose rein with light contact and without requiring undue restraint. The horse should be responsive to the rider and make all required transitions smoothly, timely and correctly. The horse should be soft in the bridle and yield to contact. Horses are shown individually at the walk, trot and lope in both directions.
- Reining: This class measures the ability of the western stock horse to perform many basic handling maneuvers. The American Stock Horse Association has five recognized regular patterns plus two Novice & Youth Patterns. The patterns are broken down into either 7 or 8 maneuvers to be scored a maximum of 10 points each. Maneuvers include stops, spins, rollbacks, circles, backups, hesitates, and lead changes.
- Trail: A horse is ridden through a pattern of obstacles which should nearly approximate those found during the course of everyday work. The horse is judged on the cleanliness, neatness and promptness with which the obstacles are negotiated, ability to negotiate obstacles correctly and attitude and mannerisms exhibited by the horse while negotiating the course. Emphasis on judging should be on identifying the well-broke, responsive, well-mannered horse which can correctly negotiate the course. All courses and obstacles are to be constructed with safety in mind so as to eliminate any accidents
- Working Cow: A versatile western stock horse must also be a cow horse and this class has been designed to demonstrate and measure the horses ability to do cow work. Novice and Youth riders must complete a pattern and box a cow for 1 minute. Green Horse and Limited Non-Pro riders have two minutes to box a cow, release the cow, and drive the cow down the side of the arena to the opposite end of the arena. Pro and Non-Pro riders have 3 minutes to box a cow and to complete fence work with an option to rope or to circle the cow.
