Owners of competitive horses from all over the United States of America look forward to compete against each other in the championship finals of the National Horse Show.
This national event is organized by the National Horse Show Association of America and takes place at the Palm Beach Polo Equestrian Club in Wellington, Florida.
The National Horse Show offers all kinds of competitions, so no matter where the horses are from or in whatever specialty the owner wishes to compete, there is always the possibility to put a horse up and show off its best talents against the world's finest and very best in horsemanship competition.
Thousands of people attend and appreciate this competition each year.
It is one of the goals of the organization: one the one hand to get the general public not only more interested but also better cultivated in the art of horsemanship.
On the other hand of course the goal is to contribute to the advancement of excellence in the field of equestrian sports.
Olympia London International Horse Show Next to the American based National Horse Show there is also the Olympia London International Horse Show.
This one takes place in London, England (who would have guessed?) each year in December.
This too is a world famous horse show where only the words finest and the elite of horses and owners can compete in such events as show jumping or dressage.
The level of skill that is displayed here never ceases to amaze the visitors, while they are admiring these fine horses competing each other.
The show jumping here contains different classes with melodious sounding names like the DEI Jumping World Cup Qualifier, the Accenture Christmas Puissance and the Olympia Grand Prix.
And one would never believe this in a country like England full of the so called stiff upper lips, but there is even a show jumping event where the riders need to do the show jumping course, then leave the horses and jump into a car and do a course delimited with cones.
Not surprisingly this event is called the Mitsubishi Ride and Drive competition.
Dressage is another of the competition possibilities: Olympia first introduced these just in 2004, since then dressage has become a permanent part of the horse show.
A specialty horse show back home is the Arabian Horse Association of Arizona's Annual Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show.
This is the place to be for anyone wanting to known in the world of the Arabian Horse.
It is an event with a lot of history: the first ever show took place in 1955 on the property of the Arizona Biltmore Hotel.
The organizing association (Arabian Horse Association of Arizona) was founded in the same year.
A win in one of their competitions brings loads of cash to the owner; needless to say the competition is fierce.
