St. Louis National Charity Horse Show

Hunter/Jumper Week

A USEF premiere-rated competition, the show will feature a wide range of hunter, jumper and equitation classes, including the Region 5 Maclay Regionals, a $5,000 3′ Hunter Derby and a $30,000 Grand Prix.

Jumpers 101

Jumpers compete over an intricate course of jumps up to five-plus feet high for speed and accuracy. Their goal is to have the quickest time possible while knocking down the fewest fence rails.

Hunters 101

Hunters are judged on performance, conformation and manners. This includes their jumping style and way of moving over a course of 8 fences. As with the jumpers, the hunter divisions vary in fence height based on the experience of the horse.
