Note: Shaded areas represent changes in scores/times from previous year.

The rules for the program for 2019 will be as follows: 1. At the beginning of the year the youth determines in which State Fair classes they want to qualify. They

are limited to four classes. The four classes may be any of the classes offered at State Fair. The following is a list of all State Fair classes to be offered in 2019 and the minimum scores/or maximum times to qualify for these classes:

The judge has the right to increase the maximum time, but is limited to one second for poor arena conditions or two seconds for extremely poor arena conditions. Times are not to be rounded up or down. (For example, if the qualifying time is 19.000 seconds and the horse/rider’s time is 19.050, their time is greater than 19.000 seconds and is not a qualifying time.) BARREL PATTERN A

2. After the youth turn in their class choices for State Fair qualification, the county needs to develop a qualifying show for all classes in which youth want to try out. Classes need to be subdivided as they are for State Fair with the exception that you need not divide showmanship, horsemanship, or equitation classes into as many age classes as is done at State Fair. Riding/driving classes should be divided so that a judge needs not evaluate more than approximately ten (10) youth at a time.

3. A county (or group of counties) may offer up to two shows or have two judges at one show. In a show with two judges, the scores should not be averaged. Counties must hire judges that are approved to judge PAS shows from the current year’s Ohio 4-H Horse Show Judges List. This list can be found online at http://horse.osu.edu.

4. Gymkhana classes – Riders get one run (attempt) per class in a show to qualify unless county or counties are using one show with two judges to qualify youth. Then the youth may have two attempts (runs) as long as they are not disqualified in the first run. If the youth receives a no time in their first run then they are still eligible for their second run. If the youth receives a disqualification in their first run then they do not receive a second run.

5. See current rule book for requirements for all classes. 6. A horse cannot show at State Fair in both Trail In-Hand and in Trail classes. 7. A horse cannot show at State Fair in both Western Pleasure and Ranch classes. 8. A horse cannot show at State Fair in both Intermediate Equitation Over Fences and Advanced Equitation

Over Fences classes. 9. A horse cannot show at State Fair in both Low Hunter Over Fences and Regular Hunter Over Fences. 10. A county may have requirements for youth to complete before they may enter State Fair qualifying

shows (i.e. written tests, interview judging, club meeting attendance, etc.). 11. The show committee must have class score sheets printed for the judge when he/she gets to the show.

These sheets are available on the internet site: http://horse.osu.edu. The judge will score the youth in the classes. As the sheets are turned in, someone from the show committee should sum the scores. These scores can then be compared to the required standards scores to determine if the youth qualified in that class for State Fair. Post the scores as soon as possible after the class is held so youth know what they have to do in future classes to qualify. If the judge gets to a point in the scoring that they know a youth will definitely not qualify for State Fair, they may place a NQ (not qualified) in the total score box on the evaluation sheet and quit keeping score on that youth.

12. PAS qualifying scores must be included on the county’s PAS verification form submitted to the Ohio State Fair entry department by 1:00 pm on Wednesday, July 3, 2019. It is the responsibility of each exhibitor to submit their entry and pay their $40 stall fee online at www.ohiostatefair.com by 1:00 pm on Wednesday, July 3, 2019. BOTH THE PAS VERIFICATION FORM (submitted by the county) AND THE ONLINE ENTRY FORM (submitted by the exhibitor) MUST BE SUBMITTED BY 1:00 PM ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 3, 2019 FOR THE EXHIBITOR TO BE ABLE TO COMPETE.

13. PAS classes should not be placed. If you wish to give awards, give awards based on score received (i.e. if a youth scores a 90 in showmanship, they get an award indicating excellence in that class).

14. A youth may only use one horse to try out in PAS shows and cannot replace a horse for any reason after they have shown in their first PAS class.

15. A youth must qualify in any two (2) classes in order to compete in the State Fair Junior Horse Show. Counties may allow youth to qualify in more than two classes; however, youth may enter in a maximum of four classes at the State Fair Junior Horse Show, this includes ground roping. At the State Fair Junior Horse Show, youth will only be allowed to show in classes for which they qualified. Youth should review the 2019 State Fair Junior Horse Show schedule carefully for potential class conflicts when selecting their classes. At State Fair, classes will not be held for class conflicts.

16. Exhibitors that have animals that are of incorrect size for the entered class will be moved to the correct class.

17. Due to the expense of conducting horse shows, some counties may find it desirable to have a show that includes classes that are not judged by PAS standards. This is acceptable; however, PAS classes may not be combined with other classes.

http://horse.osu.edu/

http://www.ohiostatefair.com/


18. Entry fees may be charged for PAS State Fair qualifying shows/classes to help cover the expense of these classes.

19. Multiple counties are encouraged to have joint qualifying shows to help decrease the cost of the shows. 20. Counties can send their youth to another county to qualify for any reason, but these guidelines must be

followed: a. The reason must be acceptable to the Extension Professional in both counties involved. b. The Extension Professional is responsible for the entries being sent to State Fair by the entry

deadline. If a youth qualifies out of county, the home Extension Professional must make the entry by the deadline. It is the responsibility of the youth to get the qualification results to their local Extension Professional.

c. The youth will pay the county to which they go a minimum of $10 per class entered to cover the costs of their participation.

d. A youth cannot compete in more than two (2) PAS shows or one PAS show with two judges. e. A county could elect to send all of their youth to one or two PAS shows instead of holding a PAS

show in their county. Rules a-d apply. f. If a county only offers one PAS show with one judge, and a youth wants to go to an additional

PAS show, they may. Rules a-d apply. g. An Out-of-County PAS form is available online at http://horse.osu.edu.

21. Show management should not expect judges to give comments to youth in PAS classes since the youth can see their evaluation on the posted score sheets.

22. Easy Gaited horses may not show in riding classes that require a trot. Correct tack and attire for Easy Gaited Equitation and Easy Gaited Pleasure is Saddle Seat or Western tack and attire, respectively. Easy Gaited classes for State Fair will be two gaited classes (no canter). Gaits will be a Show Walk and a Show Gait. County qualifying classes will also be two gaited. In Easy Gaited Pleasure, the Show Gait will be worth 70 points since they do not canter. Easy Gaited horses may show in Gymkhana if the class does not require a trot.

23. A youth may show in draft (horse or pony) or light (horse or pony) driving, but not both. A heavy harness is expected in draft classes while a light harness is expected in light horse/pony driving classes.

24. Patterns for 2019 PAS qualifying classes are included at the end of this document. These patterns are the only patterns to be used for PAS classes in 2019. In addition to these patterns, the following rules will apply for the specified classes: PAS Qualifying Showmanship Rules

a. A judge may bring the class into the arena and then do the pattern, or they may work the youth as they enter the arena. Draft horses are an exception in that they will always come into the arena and work out of the line.

PAS Qualifying Horsemanship/Equitation Rules a. For Western Horsemanship and Hunter Equitation, the judge may work the pattern as the rider

enters the area and then bring either the finalist or the whole class back for rail work. They may work the rail first and do the pattern afterward for any Horsemanship/Equitation class. Saddle Seat and Easy Gaited Equitation will always work the rail first.
