Blue Ridge Miniature Harness Racing Club | |||||||||||||||||
| Our club is dedicated to promoting and enjoying miniature horse racing. We have our own track and meetonce a month to race.Miniature harness racing is fun for the whole family. We have youth classes and adult classes.Racers who finish the race and are not disqualified for breaking into a canter more than three times, accumulate points, and winners get a little cash. | ||||||||||||||||
|
| Miniature horses can race if they are less than or equal to 38 inches tall and registered in one of the mini horse registries.Each horse is measured at the beginning of the racing season.Then each horse is time-trialed and put in a time bar so that it races with horses of similiar abilities. | ||||||||||||||||
|
| The driver (called the jockey), must wear a helmet, goggles, white pants, and racing silks.We have an oval track and a moving starting gate just like the big harness racers use, only miniature!We have bleachers, an emcee, judges, timers, a racing secretary, and of course, a concession stand!I will be adding pictures, links and updating this page regularly, especially when we get into the racing season starting April 18.Please visit again! | ||||||||||||||||
