Cutting Horse Show-September 19-21

One of the world’s fastest growing equine sports, Cutting offers tremendous excitement for horse, rider, and spectators alike! The competition consists of horse and rider separating a particular cow from a herd. Spectators will see a dance like performance between cow and horse. The National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) provides the means by which contestants are judged by maintaining a point system which gives definite credits and penalties while providing a fair basis for judging cutting horses and their riders. The American Royal Cutting Horse Show in memory of Hilary Watson, features the Open and Non-Pro Showcase and Saddle Shootout, where the top rider will walk away with a branded saddle.

💜Don’t forget to wear purple on Saturday, September 20 in memory of Hilary Watson.
