The “Hunt and Go” format was only introduced several years ago as a way to shorten the original derby format while still offering a classic and a handy round. Instead of all riders competing through the classic and then returning at a later time for a handy, the course is designed as half classic and half handy. Riders are therefore able to highlight their horse’s strengths in both formats. We will run this derby at 2’6”, 2’9”, 3’, and 3’3” Each entrant will receive a numerical score for the classic round and a separate numerical score for the handy round. All horses will complete the handy round unless they have a major fault such as a refusal, pole down, or a fall. The total of the two rounds will be the final score.
