A Super Horse can appear in a parade one day, work cows the next, compete in trail equitation, western dressage or working equitation the following day — and more. The Super Horse can do all that with lightness, cadence, carriage, fluidity and responsiveness.

The competition is designed to challenge the horse and rider to excel in their abilities and to demonstrate communication, horsemanship and equitation. This event rewards people for the time and hard work they have invested in their horses, and let me add that this is not a race. This challenge is designed to showcase the rider’s relationship, and the horse’s relaxed lightness and responsiveness with balance/collection throughout the course.

One of the great bonuses of having the Ultimate Super Horse Challenge at Western States Horse Expo is that these horses will be exposed to huge crowds, golf carts, babies crying, horses all around them, bursts of applause, loud speakers — all kinds of environments and noises that you can’t duplicate at home. It’s great exposure for the horse. You can’t buy that kind of training!

The overall winner of the four-day Ultimate Super Horse Challenge will receive one of Charles Wilhelm’s signature saddles and buckle. In addition, the top five contestants receive a ribbon and great prizes from the event sponsors, totaling over $5000.

The four days of competition include the following:

  • Dancing with Cows TM and Performance Pattern
  • Cowboy Dressage
  • Trail Equitation
  • Super Horse Challenge Finale
  • Meet & Greet at the front gate of the Expo

The competition will take place in the Spirit Arena and Charles will be available at his booth#2725 in Building B.  Stop by the booth to ask Charles a question for his upcoming TV shows, and maybe you will be the next star.
