Scoring (Averaging System) - For all breeds, a four-judge system will be used with the low card being dropped before the average card is tabulated. The averaging system used for the overall placings for the awarding of medallions is as follows: Horses are given an advantage or “weighted” credit for receiving first place on any judge’s card. Points will be awarded based on the following: • 1st place - 0 points • 2nd place - 2 points • 3rd place - 3 points • 4th place - 4 points • 5th place - 5 points • 6th place - 6 points • 7th place - 7 points • 8th place - 8 points • 9th place - 9 points • 10th place - 10 points All horses not appearing on a judge’s card will receive 1 more point than the last horse placed in the class. Points from all judges’ cards are totaled and the entry with the lowest score wins on the average card. Tabulation Error - If a tabulation error is suspected, a written inquiry may be presented to the Show Steward within 24 hours after the completion of the affected class without using the protest procedure, EXCEPT AT THE END OF THE SHOW WHEN ALL INQUIRIES MUST BE GIVEN BEFORE THE AWARDS ARE PRESENTED. The PtHA reserves the right to correct such an error without recourse from entrants. Tie Breaker - One judge is designated as the tie breaker for each class. In the event of a tie, the entry appearing highest on the tie breaker judge’s card is placed highest in the average. The judge designated as tie breaker will be alternated from class to class. PROTESTS Protests and complaints will follow the rules for the respective association in which the protest filer belongs. RESULTS Results for each Congress class will be posted in the PtHA Booth and on the PtHA Web site at the end of each day. High Point and Class results will be published in the Pinto Horse online magazine following the show.
