Small
Horses,
Big Event at Kirkwood
Posted 21 June
2010
This is a big show
centered on fascinatingly small horses.
Breeders and enthusiasts of the smaller kinds of equines are coming to
Cedar Rapids. The All American Miniature Horse show is held at the Iowa
Equestrian Center Saturday and Sunday, June 19-20. Doors open and
events begin at 8:00 a.m. on both Saturday and Sunday
There are 170 horses coming to show in this American Miniature Horse
Registry Show. The show consists of 150 classes and is one of the
largest miniature horse-only shows in the U.S. this year. Horses are
coming to this show to qualify for the National show, set for September
in Tulsa, Okla. Exhibitors are coming from Iowa, Minnesota, North
Dakota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Missouri. There also is a horse owner
from Arizona that will have his horses shown here this weekend.
The show will cover two types of miniatures: type A) are horses that
are 34 inches and under at the shoulder; and Type B) are 34 – 38 inches.
Attendees will see a wide variety of classes of miniature horse
competitions. Halter classes will be held in the mornings. The
afternoon and evening classes will be driving classes, versatility
classes and obstacle classes. There also will be a mare foal race. This
class is a fun raffle in which the mare and her baby foal will be
brought into the arena together. The mare will be taken to opposite end
of the arena. The baby will be let loose and the first baby to reach
its mother and nurse will be the winner.
