Splitting Second Round Qualifiers

Show Organisers that have more than 30 entries in a Second Round Qualifier have the option to split into two sections as it is unfair on the judge if the class is too large. Second Round Qualifiers with fewer than 30 entries may not be split. Competitors must check with the individual Venue as to whether a Second Round Qualifier has been split into two sections.

Should a Show Organiser split a Second Round Qualifier into two sections then the following numbers to qualify will apply.

Numbers to Qualify

Combined TotalNumber to Qualify
up to 615 each section
62 or more6 each section

Show Organisers must ensure that the sections are evenly split prior to withdrawals. Should there be more withdrawals in one section than the other the balance of entries between the two sections will not be adjusted.

Splitting a Second Round Qualifier into more than two sections may only be done with prior permission from the Trailblazers Central Office.

Juniors & Senior Second Round Qualifiers that run concurrently

A Show Organiser may run a Junior and Senior Second Round Qualifier at the same level as a joint competition. However, the result must be split into junior and senior competitors for qualification purposes. The number of senior entries will dictate the number of seniors to qualify and the number of junior entries dictates the number of juniors to qualify.

Qualifying Partnerships

Only qualified partnerships (horse / pony and rider) from a Trailblazers Second Round Qualifier are eligible to compete at the Trailblazers Championship Finals.
