Know the Facts.

Fact Sheet.  Things You Need to Know About the Show.

FACT ONE:  ASHA Star Shows are exactly the same as USEF Lite shows except a horse can only accumulate 3 total points toward their CH status at Star Shows. Why is this limitation? Because USEF and USEF Lite shows are subject to random drug testing and Star Shows are not. It is the opinion of the American Saddlebred Registry that to earn CH distinction, a horse should have to earn the bulk of those points at shows subjected to random drug testing.  ASHA Star Shows accumulate CH points at half the value of USEF shows with a maximum number of 3 points allowed from Star Shows. That means 1/2 point for a win in a qualifying class of at least 6 horses; 1 point for a win in a championship class with at least 4 horses and 1/2 point for a reserve in a championship class with at least 4 horses.

FACT TWO:  All participants are eligible to accumulate points for ASHA High Point Awards, ASHA National Pleasure Horse Awards and ASHA State Pleasure Awards. You must be a member of ASHA to be eligible for the ASHA awards programs.

FACT THREE:   ASHA Alpha Classes for riders that have either moved out of the Academy Division or are new riders entering show horse classes for the first time. These classes, unlike the novice or limit rider classes, will give riders two show seasons to compete at an entry level of competition. This will give riders more experience before moving up to stronger competition.

FACT FOUR:  
Single Bit Classes: Horses are to be shown by Amateur or Juvenile riders in a snaffle bit with running or German martingale. Draw reins also allowed. However, any leverage bit rein is prohibited through the martingale. Pelham or ‘Tom Thumb’ bit without martingale, shank not to exceed 5 inches, also allowed. All tack should be of show ring quality. Same horse/rider combinations may not cross enter into another division, with the exception of the Model, Showmanship, Pattern and In-Hand Obstacle Classes. ​
