 Medal Finals Callback Tapes
AHSA Hunter Seat Equitation National Medal Finals
Each year over 200 junior riders qualify for and compete in the AHSA Hunter Seat Equitation National Medal Finals
at Harrisburg, PA. After the first round the top 25 or so are called back for a second round. Then the top riders
return for one or more final tests to select the eventual winner. These tapes include all the callback trips of
the top riders from each year, and can be a good training tool by watching the top riders tackle these tough courses.

 Gambler's Choice
Each obstacle is alloted a number of points, from 10 to 120 according to difficulty. Top Open Jumpers go for the
highest point total and an optional gamble at the Joker Fence (an extra plus or minus 200 points) in this timed
event. You'll be on the edge of your seat watching these talented riders work out their strategies.
 Puissance
International Open Jumpers from the Washington International Horse Show tackle jumps
from 4'6" to 5'9" in height on their approach to the Wall, which increases in height with each round.
The winner each year often clears heights approaching 7 feet! This is an exciting competition.
