POINTS AWARDED
*used AQHA Rule and Handbook 2024
SHW555. ALL-AROUND VERSATILITY RANCH HORSE.
The title of All-Around Versatility Ranch Horse will be awarded for each show in the open, cowboy, amateur, limited amateur, rookie amateur, *adult w/t, *youth w/t, youth, limited youth and rookie youth divisions, if earned. Each division is to be calculated independently based on the number of horses competing in that division. Divisions may not be held concurrently (i.e., amateur classes may not run currently with limited or rookie amateur classes). All-around versatility ranch horse points are based on a one horse/one rider combination. (See exception in ranch conformation for exhibitor with multiple horses.) A horse/rider team is all-around eligible if it competes in at least one cattle class, at least one non-cattle riding class, and ranch conformation in the same division. All exhibitors in every class, including ranch conformation, must be placed. Exhibitors in each class will be ranked according to score or placing from the highest to the lowest. In all classes, the highest placing all-around eligible exhibitor will receive 50 credits, regardless of the number of other horses entered or eligible. Second highest all around eligible exhibitor will receive 49 credits and so on. For example, an exhibitor competing for the all-around who places 16th in the class yet is the highest placing all-around eligible entry they will receive 50 credits. An exhibitor placing 22 in the same class who is the second highest all around eligible entry, will receive 49 credits and so on.
Another example: In a class of six entries, if the highest placing all-around exhibitor places second, 50 credits are earned. If the second highest all-around eligible exhibitor places fourth in the class, they would receive 49 credits are earned and so forth. After totaling credits for eligible all-around entries in each class, the exhibitor receiving the highest number of credits in that division will be named the All-Around versatility ranch horse in that division and will receive additional points based on the number of horses competing for the all-around title.SHW555.1 If there are ties in the final placing for the all- around versatility ranch horse they will be broken by the highest placing horse in the ranch cow work, limited ranch cow work, or rookie ranch cow work, whichever is applicable to the division. If this does not break the tie, other classes will be used in the following order: ranch cutting, ranch reining, ranch trail, ranch riding, and ranch conformation.
