Finley Grace Brooks

The Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders’ and Exhibitors’ Association, is proud to encourage youth
riders learning and becoming proficient at the canter. It is a great way for our industry to regain the
canter, and to reward our youth for achieving excellence at this level.

Youth Medallion classes will be offered at various horse shows throughout the year. There will be
two divisions, performance and pleasure, each division with its own end-of-year award. Riders will
receive points determined by their placings in these two divisions, with the rider accumulating the
most points in each division receiving an educational scholarship valued at $500.00. Payout for Me-
dallion classes are a medallion and money as follows $100, $75, $50, $40, $30.

Guidelines for the Youth Medallion Classes:
• Open to all youth riders, age 17 and under (age as of January 1).
• Ownership of the horse is not required. Stallions are not allowed.
• Classes are for Flat-Shod and padded Performance Show Horses, performing all three gaits - flat

walk, running walk, and canter.
• The rider, not the horse, accumulates points awarded for placing and participating in the class.

Therefore, riders are not required to show the same horse throughout the season.

Any horse show interested in offering medallion classes should contact TWHBEA at
(931) 359-0592. Affiliation forms are available at twhbea.com under Youth Forms.

Text or Call Is the new stallion at Holmes Farm Walkers. This is the rarest of
405-888-1956 the rare! He is an EE,AA,CrCr perlino colt with no markings. That
means he will sire a buckskin foal with any color mare except an-
Edmond, OK other dilute. He is a son of The Buck Starts Here and out of Creamy
Chance. Both parents have no modern blood and this should make
him an excellent cross on all these Pride of Midnight-bred mares.
Live cover only. Weanlings for sale after April 2022.
