Second through fifth places will earn one point less than the placing ahead of it (Example-8 horses in the class, points earned as follows: 1st = 8 points, 2nd = 7, 3rd = 6, 4th = 5, 5th = 4) Supreme Championships shall be awarded with the same point system.

6. Each show must turn in the results to Mary Miner for tabulation at the end of the show with the following information:
A. Class name C. Name of the horses placing 1st- 5th
B. Name of horse’s owner AND exhibitor D. Number of entries in the class

8. Prizes will be awarded at the annual AHSI Christmas Party. Prizes for the TOP FIVE places, Champion and Reserve Champion will be awarded.

9. In the event of a TIE, the tie will be resolved by determining the greatest number of first places. The individual with the most 1st places will be considered the winner. If this does not resolve the tie, the individual with the most 2nd places will be considered the winner.
