Hunter Paces

How to WiN

Points are awarded to individual riders, not teams. Riders may ride with different teammates.
Riders cannot cross-enter in Divisions. Riders must stay in the same Division for each Hunter Pace to qualify for that Division.
Riders may only place in 1 Division. If a rider participates twice in the same day, the rider must claim which Division they wish to qualify before their ride.
Year-end awards are presented to the top scoring rider/team in each Division: Hunt, Junior & Pleasure
For the Junior Division, at least 1 rider must be under 18 years of age.
In order to qualify, riders must participate in 2 of the 3 Hunter Paces.
A horse may only make 1 trip per event. No 2 riders may use the same horse in each event.
Dress code is neat with proper attire for riding discipline practiced by the rider. Smithtown Hunt members are required to wear formal attire for all Hunter Paces taking place after formal season (Opening Hunt through Closing Hunt).
There is a 2.5 hour limit to complete the course.
Riders/teams not at the Start Line by 11:45am will not qualify to place.
Each event will be awarded 1st place through 6th place.
