We love seeing our local studs out but want everyone to be respectful and stay safe.
So please pay attention if someone has blue in their horses manes and tails.

Have you ever noticed a horse at an ABHA event wearing a blue ribbon in its mane or tail?
That blue ribbon is an important safety identifier. It lets fellow competitors, spectators and event officials know that the horse is a stallion.
As a reminder, under ABHA rules:
๐๐ถ๐ญ๐ฆ 31: ๐๐ต๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ช๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ ๐ข ๐ท๐ช๐ด๐ช๐ฃ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ญ๐ถ๐ฆ ๐ณ๐ช๐ฃ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ช๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ/๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ต๐ข๐ช๐ญ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฑ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ช๐ง๐บ ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด.
This simple ribbon helps everyone remain aware and promotes a safer environment for horses and riders at our events.
If youโre competing with a stallion, please ensure your blue ribbon is clearly visible at all times.
