AQHA Professional Horsemen from around the country are teaming up to provide free Ride the Pattern clinics, presented by Nutrena, at the 2017 Built Ford Tough AQHYA World Championship Show.

At these clinics, the AQHA Professional Horsemen show the audience how they would complete a specific pattern from that show.

AQHA Corporate Partner Nutrena will sponsor these clinics at the Built Ford Tough AQHYA; AQHA Select, sponsored by Adequan® (polysulfated glycosaminoglycan); and Lucas Oil AQHA world championship shows. Be sure to attend all of the clinics to have your chance at great prizes from Nutrena!

During the clinics, AQHA Professional Horsemen will also be accepting donations for the AQHA Guy Stoops Professional Horsemen’s Scholarship Fund. The AQHA Professional Horsemen truly appreciate your generosity of donating to the scholarship fund and look forward to seeing you at the Ride the Pattern clinics at this year’s Ford Youth World. You can also donate to the AQHA Professional Horsemen’s Crisis Fund, Guy Stoops Professional Horsemen’s Family Scholarship and/or the Professional Horsemen Development Fund online.
