orientation, or veteran status can
exhibit in the Open Division of the

forfeit all entry fees, privileges and

from current and future Rio Arriba
County Fairs.

conditions or other causes.

award based on a numerical score for
blue, red, and white ribbons. When the

within each group are further ranked in
relation to their relative standing within
each group giving strict adherence to
a standard of characteristics for a blue,
red, or white ribbon that is used by the
judge). Awards: Blue, Red, White,

5. Judges may disqualify or transfer

receive 4 points; 2nd – 3 points;
3rd – 2 points; 4th – 1 point.

the tie breakers will be: (1) earned
points in the greatest number of
events, (2) earned the most points
in the riding classes, (3) greatest #
of first places, (4) coin toss.
