2024 APHS South-West Schedule
By popular demand we have organised an event in the South-West for Foreign Breeds.
Please support this inaugural event so that it can remain a fixture in the showing calendar.

We will have a number of classes for pure and partbred foreign breeds, open to all - no membership or qualification required to take part. Qualifiers included APHS Foreign Breed National Finals, APHS Youth Ridden Finals, APHS Veteran Finale and our Champion of Champions.

As at all our events, rosettes were awarded to 6th place and sashes to all class winners. We will also run a separate Part and Pure Championships for both in hand and ridden.  All our awards are hand made bespoke ribbons and sashes.

As always our Youth, Walk / Trot and Novice classes are open to ANY Breed of horse or pony (not just foreign breeds).

ADDITIONAL AWARDS for 2024 :
Awards to ALL Junior Riders in Open Walk/Trot class
Best PRMe Awards (in hand and ridden)
