Drag will be determined by a draw.  A number from 1-5 will be drawn.  The first drag will be after the number drawn and every 5 thereafter.  There will be no changes in run order after the draw of the drag.


Pole bending:  A contestant may run as many horses as he or she wishes, but a horse-rider combination may not run multiple times.  Read more under poles, pg. 4.


Nominated Contestant Obligations 

(Some obligations are new for 2011 - Please read the entire HHBRA Rules for 2011!)


Each rider nominated for year-end awards is required to collect or pay a $50 sponsorship paid to HHBRA by July 1, 2011.  If the sponsorship is not paid, the rider will stop receiving points until it is paid. This sponsorship must be paid separately from entry fees and nomination fees.  Any family sponsoring a saddle will be exempt from this obligation. 


Each nominated rider must also attend 5 of the first 8 jackpots with a minimum of 8 jackpots for the year to be eligible for year-end awards.  One award will be given per nomination.  Each owner/rider must personally work in the arena for one class at each jackpot attended to be eligible for that day's points.


Workers must be inside the arena on the pattern side of the timer to avoid interference with the timer.  Workers may not bring dogs or any other animals the arena with them.
