USEF Saddle Seat Medal Finals
US Equestrian, in conjunction with the UPHA Board of Directors, agreed to move the USEF Saddle Seat Adult Amateur Medal Final to the UPHA American Royal National Championship Horse Show starting in 2023. The decision was made to move this Final from the Lexington Junior League Charity Horse Show to the UPHA American Royal National Championship Horse Show to enable the adult amateur riders to have a longer qualification time frame for the 2023 competition year. Also starting in 2023, the qualification requirements were changed for Morgan exhibitors for the USEF Saddle Seat Medal Final.
Congratulations to all the riders
who participated in 2024!
