The IDHSNA/USEA Future Event Horse Program is for yearlings, two-year-olds, and three-year-olds and judges their potential to become successful event horses. In FEH classes, horses are judged on both their conformation and the quality and correctness of their gaits. Upon entering the arena, their handlers are asked to stand the horses up for inspection to allow the judge to analyze the strengths and weaknesses in their conformation. Then, they are asked to walk a 15-meter triangle, and then trot a 30-meter triangle. Finally, they are asked to stand up one last time for the judge to make their final observations.
The USEA Future Event Horse Series would not be possible without the support of our title sponsor, the Irish Draught Horse Society of North America. The Irish Draught Society of North America is a non-profit corporation dedicated to the preservation, promotion, and celebration of the Irish Draught Horse and Irish Draught partbreds. The Society strives to assist in the conservation of the breed throughout the world and maintains the studbooks for qualified Irish Draught and partbred Irish Draught horses in North America.
