Los Amigos Peruvian Paso

Silver Belt Buckle Series

Four Belt Buckles will be presented at the 27th Annual Los Amigos Peruvian Paso Championship Show, July 25, 26 & 27, 2008, at Earl Warren Showgrounds, Santa Barbara

These awards will be for High Point and Reserve High Point Noviciado Rider, and High Point and Reserve High Point Experiencia Rider.

Points will be awarded to the placings in two events prior to the Championship Show.  One of those events was the ETI Corral 50 show held March 9, 2008.  The other event to be held June 8, 2008 at Earl Warren Showgrounds.  Points will also be awarded in certain classes designated within the Championship Show.  However, the Championship Show points will be double the value.

This competition is open to all exhibitors with a registered Peruvian Paso Horse.  All horses must be registered with NAPHA (PPHRNA or AAOBPPH).  Exhibitors must show a copy of official registration papers upon request.

Riders will only compete in either Noviciado or Experiencia divisions, not both.  It is recommended that anyone with 2 or more years of showing experience (or 6 shows) should be in the Experiencia division.  However, if you feel you have not had enough experience to compete successfully in the typical Amateur division of any Championship Show, you may select to compete in the Noviciado division.

If the judge feels any exhibitor has entered the wrong division, she will have the latitude to move the rider to the correct division.  All points accumulated in the first division will be lost.

Riders do not need to participate in all 3 events to win. 

Riders do not need to be present at the presentation to win. 

Points are based on the RIDER,  and are cumulative.  Entering more classes at more events provides more opportunities to collect points.

Following is the results of the first event, held March 9, 2008
