Join Us for a Fun Weekend with Your Horse Show Friends and Family!
Signature is designed to be exhibitor friendly with all the regular classes and four TBA (To Be Announced) classes plus some "old fashion" classes that aren't held often but are great fun for participants and spectators. The Ledges outdoor arena is a lovely setting and the footing is very good. The indoor ring is available in case of inclement weather.

Choose "A" or "B" Season Trophy Points for Each Entry

Exhibitors again will be to able to choose whether their Signature Show wins get A circuit or B circuit season trophy points on the Mid-America, IASPHA and ASAW high point systems. Whatever the class placing, the highest placed B entry will get the equivalent of first place points toward B circuit season trophies, the next highest B entry will get second place points, etc. The highest place A entry will get the equivalent of first place points toward A circuit season trophies, next highest A entry will get second place points, etc. (Does not apply to Academy entries, which get the same season trophy points at A and B shows.)

JOIN US AT THE COUNTRY'S BEST SHOW FACILITIES

Join us this fall at Mane Event for a full schedule of performance and equitation classes at the highly regarded Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield - where ALL STABLING IS IN ENCLOSED BARNS convenient to the Coliseum.

Exhibitors tell us they really appreciate the facilities…. the Coliseum's banked oval arena and the three warm-up rings (two indoor arenas plus a huge covered arena with a 50' round pen), all next to the Coliseum in-gate....all available to exhibitors 24/7. Plus the excellent stabling.

The Mane Event schedule includes a wide range of classes for Saddlebreds (performance, park, pleasure), Road Horses (bike), Hackney Ponies (harness, roadster, pleasure) and equitation (saddle seat, pleasure, adult, walk/trot).

Hospitality at Mane Event includes an exhibitors party considered by many to be the "best on the show circuit" -- catered food stations offer gourmet selections without long lines. Don't miss the Lobster Bisque!
