Participating in the SAQ State High Point Awards is now easier than ever before with the new submission system. Simply take your Standardbred to any event, participate, and record your results and points in the applicable Performance Card. After your application is approved you will be issued with a link to complete your card online. If you prefer to complete manual cards, please indicate below.
You are not restricted to just SAQ events, any equestrian event is eligible for points.
The SAQ State High Points is FREE to all members.
Criteria
1.
Participant must be a financial SAQ Member at the time of the individual competition entered onto the Performance card. Points cannot be backdated. If you submit points from July but did not join/renew your membership until August, points from show(s) prior to joining/re-joining will be stripped. Those found to be doing this intentionally, may find themselves banned entirely from that season’s competition awards, and anyone found cheating and falsifying points will also have all their points stripped, and subsequent bans from participating in the future season(s).
2.
The dates for events eligible for points, are 1st October to 30th September each year. If you compete your horse within these dates, then you are eligible to submit points.
