An Update From the Capital Challenge Horse Show

Upper Marlboro, MD – The Capital Challenge Horse Show management team is working closely with state and local government officials and is looking forward to welcoming exhibitors to the show’s home, the Prince George’s Equestrian Center in Upper Marlboro, MD, on September 25 to October 4, 2020.

In conjunction with the team at the Prince George's Equestrian Center, Capital Challenge management is planning a comprehensive set of protocols to allow for a safe competition. 

On June 1, US Equestrian sanctioned competition will resume, allowing riders to again earn qualifying points for the Taylor Harris Insurance Services (THIS) National Children’s Medal and the Ariat National Adult Medal classes. While this is the case, the Capital Challenge team is aware that not all areas of the country will resume showing at the same time. Therefore, in an effort to keep the qualifying process as fair as possible, the following revision has been made for both classes:
​
The points a rider earns at their 10 best shows will count toward qualifying. A rider may compete in more than 10 shows during the qualification period, but only the 10 shows where they earned the most points will count toward qualifying for the finals.
