Announcing the 16th Annual Fall
2026 Hudson Valley Pace Series!
This year we again have 6* Dutchess and Columbia County hunter paces in our series! Earn points for every pace you enter. The higher you place the more points you earn. Participate in at least 4* of our member paces and you automatically qualify for fabulous prizes and bragging rights. The more paces you enter, the greater chance you have to win. Points will be awarded to individual riders so you need not ride in the same team or the same division throughout the Series. (Hunt division will earn 1 to 20 pts. Hilltoppers earn 1 to 10 pts. Points accumulate for Series prizes. Both Goldens Bridge/Rombout Hunt and Old Chatham Hunt have a separate Junior division that competes for the same optimum time as Hilltopper Hunt. For the purposes of the pace series point allocation only- Hilltopper and Junior results will be combined to determine Hilltopper Division points.)
* Goldens Bridge Fall Hunter Pace will be replacing Rombout Fall Hunter Pace
We welcome Rhinebeck Equine our sponsor for the
Series Grand Champions - Top 2 total points earned each win an embroidered cooler. Series Reserve Champions – Top 3rd & 4th points earned each win an embroidered saddle pad. |
