Another feature of this event was that all arenas were streamed live courtesy of horsehowglobal.com. Each arena was equipped with a time delay monitor for exhibitors to watch their runs, which was all part of the $300 all show fee. As always, the WestWorld arenas and ground conditions were maintained to the highest standards. Exhibitors appreciated the rubber matted stalls and cleanliness of the facility. The new climate controlled Equidome “Equine Chronicle Arena” hosted many of the classes as well as the vendors.
The Arizona fall weather was perfect with cool nights and warm days. Scroll below to view results from the event.
