• Walk Trot Reining is open to riders who are 9 years of age or younger as of January 1st of the current year.

• Riders entering Walk Trot Reining may only enter that class and can not compete in any other classes at that show.

• Although this class is intended to give young riders their first opportunities to perform in the reining pen, their runs will be judged and official placings will be awarded.

• The Walk Trot Reining class will run NRHA Short Stirrup or WPR Para Reining patterns.
