AZ - Scottsdale has some exciting changes in store for 2011!!
The Arabian Horse Association of Arizona has been working hard to create some innovative changes in the halter division at the 56th Annual Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show, February 17-27, 2011.
The Scottsdale show committee is planning on adding two (2) international halter judges to the roster. These two guest judges will work with all four (4) panels that judge halter classes. Each halter class will have 5 judges total and all scores will count towards the resulting champions.
The committee will also be adding the Scottsdale International Breeders Classic classes which will be Vegas style halter classes for yearlings and 2 year olds. We will use the Las Vegas score card. These International style halter classes will appeal to a more international style horse and can not be cross entered with the comparative style open Scottsdale halter classes.
