“The Paint Horse Championships are APHA’s way of encouraging the grassroots exhibitor and rewarding our Paint Horse exhibitors and horses who might not participate at the world level or have not had success at the World Shows.”

Additions to the rulebook for this year include new classes, fewer requirements for show approval, and amended registration rules.
