FORT WORTH, TEXAS\u2014<\/strong>From November 6\u201315, 2008, the 85-acre Will Rogers Memorial Center complex in Fort Worth, Texas, will be home to the American Paint Horse Association\u2019s (APHA) newest world-class specialty show. Held after the breed\u2019s mid-summer original premier event, the World Championship Paint Horse Show, the inaugural APHA Fall Championship Show will feature world title classes for weanling and yearling halter, yearling longe line and 2-year-old performance horses. It will also showcase breeders futurities, new added-money and jackpot classes, slot classes and select Challenge and Sweepstakes classes.<\/p>\n

On the move<\/strong><\/p>\n

The new show is formatted to allow a longer period of time for young horses to mature before competing on a world-class level, and so there are several classes moving from the upcoming World Championship Show, set for June 21\u2013July 5, to the Fall Championship Show. Classes moving include Open and Amateur World Championship classes for weanling halter horses, yearling halter and performance horses, 2-year-old performance horses and all 3-year-old Challenge classes.<\/p>\n

In addition to competition, the new show will also include a select championship sale, which will replace the World Showcase Sale that was held during the World Show in previous years.<\/p>\n
