More American Quarter Horse Association amateur exhibitors are now eligible to show at the 2011 Adequan Select and Bank of America Amateur world championship shows.
Developed by the AQHA Amateur Committee, this new program allows the highest point-earning exhibitor in each class from each state who just missed earning the prescribed number of qualifying points to the AQHA World Show or Select World Show to be invited to compete in that class at the World Show. Adequan Select exhibitors who are eligible under the new program should have already received their invitations. Invitations for the Bank of America Amateur World Show are now being processed.
The Adequan Select World runs August 28 – September 3 in Amarillo, Texas, and the Bank of America Amateur World Show is held in conjunction with the FedEx Open World Show, November 5-19 in Oklahoma City. The Bank of America Amateur World Show offers $150,000 in added money, and 100 percent of exhibitors’ entry fees are paid back in purses.
If you have any questions about the Amateur Invitational Program, contact Kim George, AQHA world show specialist, at (806) 378-4338 or [email protected].
