Quarter Horse
The American Quarter Horse Journal, December 29, 2009 – The qualifying season for the 2010 Bank of America Amateur and FedEx Open World Championship Show is under way, and the recommendations for qualifying points have been approved by the American Quarter Horse Association Executive Committee.
AQHA’s in-house World Show Committee uses a formula to determine the qualifying points that includes information on entries for the previous World Show. The committee then presents the recommendations to the Executive Committee for approval.
Qualifying points for the 2010 AQHA World Show will remain the same as in 2009, with the exception of progressive working hunter. For 2010, the progressive working hunter class will require four points to qualify to compete at the World Show compared to the six points needed for 2009. The qualifying period for the 2010 AQHA World Show began August 1, 2009, and will conclude July 31, 2010. To check your current points, visit www.aqhamembers.org.
The 2009 AQHA World Show had 3,464 entries, with open ranch sorting being the class with the largest number of entries (160 horses comprising 80 teams). Held for the 33rd time in Oklahoma City, the 2009 Bank of America Amateur and FedEx Open World Show had an economic impact on the Oklahoma City area of $30.9 million.
The 2010 Bank of America Amateur and FedEx Open World Championship Show will return to Oklahoma City November 5-20.
Below is a complete list of classes and qualifying points for 2009 and 2010.
