Hi, some of you who read the showing forum will have seen a post/topic raised by Nut on here about getting pure-bred arab classes into exsisting championship shows I am delighted to say that we have done just that!
I have confirmed with the show secretary on thursday last week that she has space a ridden affiliated class(es)which will be as follows; 8.30am Judges: Class Novice Ridden Registered Part Bred Class Novice Ridden PB Arab – 148cms Class Novice Ridden PB Arab – exc 148cms Class Novice Ridden Pure Bred Arab CHAMPIONSHP 12.00noon Judges: Class Open Part Bred Welsh Class Open Part Bred Arab – 148cms Class Open Part Bred Arab – exc 148cms Class Open Registered Part Bred CHAMPIONSHIP 2.00pm Judges: Class Open Ridden Arab – Top 6 in Eve Perf
the classes will be affiliated to AHS and fingers crossed we are looking a Cherif for AA/PBA (but not confirmed) just a big thankyou to everyone who raised this subject and emailed Betsy at equifest Just goes to show when you pull together what you can achieve its fantastic news - we may need a little help with the sponsoring but I will update you further when that comes to light..
This event is held at the East of England showgrounf from the 18th - 21st August 2011.
Big thanks again for everyone and of course Nut for having the idea go girl..whats next....?

That's excellent news!
Will def put it on our list of shows next year. I've been talking with Jeff Grace the past few weeks and he said that he was trying to get Equifest to hold arab classes so that's brillant stuff.
Well done guys

Do you have to qualify for this? Is it the same as the Royal London where you qualify for any class in the show as long as you have qualified for one class?? Thanks x |

Fantastic Had an email from her too to say we had made this happen, so thanks everyone that emailed them.
The only way to promote the breed is to get them in front of a wider equine audience. Really looking forward to seeing the list of qualifers and hopefully aiming to get one of mine there next summer.
Have a note in my diary to keep on top of the Trailblazers organisers (already got their timetable fixed until end 2012!) and the British Elite show organisers who are considering adding pure breds too.

Hi thats great news Lynda, this just goes from strength to strength This show will be open to all, the concept being to drive more arab classes into 'championship shows' so pencil this show into your diary for 2011, its hot to trot! Nut, its really great you are still chasing the other shows, I heard about trailblazers bit of a shame but roll on 2012 If ANYONE can help or suggest other shows were we can beg space for pure/part/AA speak up! it all starts here! And thanks again to everyone (your'e fabulous!) for helping to make Equifest a reality! see you in the ring... |
