The next National Show will be held on September 23rd & 24th, 2017 at the Marshall City Arena, 3310 Popular Street, Marshall, TX 75671. This show is one of the very few in the country that specifically honors the horses descended from the original Spanish stock brought over to the New World in the 15th century, and their hybrids and descendants.  These horses are true American Originals.  The National Show was created in order to show these horses in an arena setting as well as on the trail where they are most often seen.

Jackpot Class: Trail of Tears (Bareback Pleasure).
