Red Earth Live is a NAMHSA member show. Each 1st and 2nd placing will receive a NAN card. This allows that horse the invitation to attend the national show.

CARDS: Each model must have a 3 X 5 card with the model's name, breed, and gender on one side, and your name on the other side placed next to it on the table.

No horse lists are necessary. Please make sure that each horse has a second card in case of Champion callbacks, and have extra cards on hand in case one of your horses is in Grand Champ callbacks. Horses in multiple Performance classes will need a card for each class. When placing models on the table for judging, place your card with your name facing down. You must provide your own cards.

PERFORMANCE JUDGING: Performance to be judged on horse's appropriateness for the task at hand, ability, correct fit and use of tack/props and overall appearance. Please include a card explaining entry with the exception of pleasure entries. A showmanship entry must have a handler. A cart and driver are optional for a harness entry. Riders are optional in all classes. Arena walls are not necessary for Pleasure & Costume classes. Showers are asked to not use props that are not absolutely necessary to the event being portrayed in regular performance classes (i.e.: judge's stands, grandstands, extra dolls, unnecessary animals, scenery, backdrops, etc.) to save time. Large setups using these items should go in the Other Performance/Scene classes. Classes where a team is shown (harness, team penning, team roping, etc.) will have only ONE model carded and judged for placings -- the other model(s) will be considered props.
