The Performance Trio
Over the course of the 2022 season the below three disciplines will be provided at multiple MHCGB area shows and also at the two national shows.
You can take part at as many shows as you like, but you must compete at a minimum of three shows - one of which MUST be the Grand Championships Show in August - to qualify for a chance of achieving the prestigious title
THE ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE TRIO HORSE AND HANDLER SUPREME.
All three events must be completed at a show for that show's placings to count.
1st place will gain 10points, 2nd 8points, 3rd 6points,
4th 4points, 5th 2points and 6th 1point.
(Points are awarded on a horse / handler combination)
You can compete in either the Novice or Open section for the season. You only need to move into the Open section if you have been crowned Novice Performance Trio Champion at a past MHCGB National Championship Show, or if you choose to move into the Open section. Once you have moved into Open you should no longer compete in the Novice classes.
A maximum of three shows from across the year will give the final totals.
If four or more Junior (16yrs or under) competitors compete at a minimum of three shows - one of which MUST be the Grand Championships Show in August - then we will add an extra award to the highest place Junior Trio competitor.
The three disciplines are:
1. Dressage
2. Halter Obstacle
3. In hand Jumping
