6 Year Olds - Developing Horse Series

Understanding the Leaderboard

The Developing Horse Series has been created to increase athlete, fan, and organizer participation by utilizing simple criteria and a user friendly leaderboard. The athlete/horse combination with the lowest mean based on their two lowest finishing scores at the levels for their age category. Six-Year-Olds will use their two lowest scores from December to June- all CCI1* and CCI2*s and then July to November- all CCI2*s.

For the fans and public, the Series’ aim is for it to be engaging, and interactive through a live leaderboard, and easily shared social content.
The objective of the leaderboard is that engagement will not be dependent on a fan’s physical attendance at competitions.
