Challenge of the States Invitational

This class is open to Junior riders, who will represent their state, with the top six scores from the open equitation classes. The top four riders with the highest scores will ride and the fifth and sixth highest scores will be the chefs d'equipe. Riders must have a minimum score of 55 to make a team. States with approximately 25 or more entries, in the qualifying classes, may be considered for additional teams. The best three of the four scores will count toward the team total. States with fewer than five riders will be combined, as the All American Team where the top six scores from these states will become the Team. If there are not five of these riders they may then compete as individuals. Riders must be NEHC medal qualified riders or past winners of the New England Finals in order to qualify for this class.
