Judging System Special Award Ties and Scoring
The World Championship Show will use teams of three AMHA carded
judges on each panel, all of whom were approved by the Licensed
Officials Committee. All three of the judges’ cards/scores will be used
to determine class winners. If a tie results, the call judges’ placing will
be used to break all ties. If a tie still results from the first call judge’s
card, the tabulation moves to the second call judge, then third until all
ties have been resolved. In calculating any of the Special Awards (Super Amateur, Best All-
Around Horse, High-Point Driving Horse, High-Point Youth Awards),
should ties occur, the following procedure will be followed. The first tie
breaker will be to determine the horse/exhibitor defeating the most
competitors. If a tie still results from this calculation, then the next tie
breaker will be to determine which horse/exhibitors must place first
through tenth in any eligible class. Should a tie still result, a coin will be
tossed by the exhibitors to determine the winner.
Three of the judges will be selected to judge all Youth classes, three
will judge the Amateur Classes, World Championship Hunter Futurity
and some Specialty Classes, and remaining three judges will adjudicate
all Open Classes, the World Championship Driving Futurities, and the
balance of the Specialty Classes. The Halter Futurity classes will be
judged by three judges (two from the Amateur Panel and one from the
Open Panel). For computer tabulation horses placing under each judge
will receive the following points:
1st place - 10 points 6th place - 5 points
2nd place - 9 points 7th place - 4 points
3rd place - 8 points 8th place - 3 points
4th place - 7 points 9th place - 2 points
5th place - 6 points 10th place - 1 point
In scoring all special awards, the following computer point system will
be used:
Entries in classes with 10 or more entries-first receives 10 points,
second receives 9 points, third receives 8 points, etc.
Entries in classes with less than 10 entries-first receives the number of
points based on the number of entries shown, etc. (Example – class
with only seven (7) entries shown – first receives 7 points, second
receives 6 points, third receives 5 points, etc.)
All classes will be judged once using the computer accumulated
tabulation system, mentioned in the paragraph above.
