Find the closest 2016 Merial AQHA Regional Championship to you and bring your American Quarter Horse to experience an event that will test your skills in a rewarding environment. The Regional Championships are a series of shows that allow you to compete for a chance to win great prizes from AQHA’s team of corporate partners and sponsors.

“Merial is proud to continue to be a part of the Merial AQHA Regional Championships,” said Beckie Peskin, Merial associate director equine marketing. “We know that AQHA competitors across the country love these events – as they are a wonderful way for them to get involved.  We wish the best of luck to all competitors and encourage you all to visit www.thestomachtowin.com for some inspiration along the way.”

Awards will be provided by AQHA for first through third place in each of the eight core classes in Level 1 youth 13-&-under, Level 1 youth 14-18, Level 1 amateur and for either Rookie or Select amateur. Winners in each class will receive a Montana Silversmiths buckle. Second-place winners will receive Professional’s Choice SMB boots and third-place winners will receive Noble Outfitters product. Buckles from Montana Silversmiths will also be awarded to the Farnam all-around winner in each division.

Exhibitors can compete in any Regional Championship; however, competitors may only compete in one Regional Championship each year.

“These shows are the best way for exhibitors to get their feet wet in AQHA championship shows,” said Charlie Hemphill, AQHA senior director of shows and new events. “The shows also give Level 1 exhibitors who place in the top 10 in a Level 1 class the opportunity to qualify for the AQHA Level 1 Championships in 2017.”
