AUGUST 26th, 2014 – ERIN, ON – Angelstone is adding two 3′ Jr/Am Canadian Hunter Derbys (August 30th & October 5th) open to all junior and amateur competitors with no restrictions to give everyone a chance to qualify for the 3′ Jr/Am National Championship at the Royal West from October 23rd ~ November 1st, 2014 as show jumping returns to the Calgary Stampede. Also at stake are valuable points towards earning the $1,000 travel assistance being awarded to the top five 3′ Jr/Am horses wishing to represent the East at the Jr/Am National Championships.

The October 5th derby at Angelstone will be the 3′ Jr/Am Canadian Hunter Derby East Championship to give competitors a chance to gain championship experience and ensure the East is prepared to compete in Calgary.

The National Championship requires competitors to compete in one 3′ Canadian Hunter Derby class or section to qualify in its inaugural year.

Jr/Am riders who have or will compete in the 3′ section of one of the regular Canadian Hunter Derby Series events will have their points counted in the 3′ Jr/Am standings.

Also scheduled at Angelstone is the 3’6″ Animo Hunter Derby on August 30th (which includes a 3′ section) and the Canadian Hunter Derby East Championships (3’6″ only) on October 5th.
