What is a Showman Competition?

The Showman competition was originally derived from International Show Horse events.

This multi-discipline competition has been designed to reward the all-round equestrian athlete with a well-developed capacity to present a horse under saddle and in-hand. Showman consists of 3 or 4 phases of equal weighting (100 marks each).

Brookleigh ARC is running a 3 Phase event consisting of Dressage, In Hand and Show Jumping. This is not a qualifying event.

Each horse and rider combination compete in each phase with only one combination of horse and rider per class. Dressage is scored as normal - percentage - with the additional phases of the competition scored out of 100 each.

Scores are collated and provided to the event organisers with the winner being the combination with the highest score out of 300 for each class.


Basic Rules

Competition attire or Club uniform.
Spurs must be removed for the led portion of the event
Horses are to be shown plaited and presented as if attending a show - clean and polished.
