BreyerFest Open Show Winners!

For this year’s BreyerFest, we expanded the Open Model Horse Show to be two days and what a smash hit with showers that turned out to be!  We had packed houses both days with competitors putting their best hoof forward in Performance and Mini classes on Thursday, and Halter classes on Friday.

Thursday hosted more than 130 participants and Friday hosted nearly 200, making it the largest BreyerFest Open Model Horse Show ever!  We cannot imagine how hard it must have been for this year’s incredible roster of judges to choose the winners of so many different classes.  A huge thank you to all the entrants, helpers, judges, stewards, and especially Show Manager Michelle for making this two-day extravaganza such a success.

If you missed this year’s Open Show (or just want another excuse to show your collection!), registration is currently open for BOO!  The Breyer Online Open Model Horse Photo Show, which is taking place on our partner platform OMHPS this fall.  You can learn more and register here!

Congratulations to all the winners of this year’s BreyerFest Open Show!
