Horses competing in specialty classes—challenges, sweepstakes (except PBRIP), and futurity events—are also not required to qualify unless they plan to also enter regular classes.

The exhibit celebrates the history and culture surrounding the charro. In Mexico, to be a charro is to be known as a skilled horseman who proudly competes in la charreria. La charreria is the Mexican art of horse handling which is a deeply engrained part of the Mexican spirit. It is a way of life, a historical legacy and an art of competitive skills and horsemanship.
