🐴 ASHBA National Select Series: J.D. Massey Classic Horse Show 🐴
May 22, 2026: Pendleton, SC – The ASHBA National Select Series continues its mission to encourage more people to show American Saddlebreds, Half Saddlebreds, and Roadsters/Hackney Roadsters, strengthening the show horse market by providing competitive opportunities for horses not competing at the World’s Championship Horse Show (WCHS) in Louisville.
Each participating show submits a horse show application and ribbon request, and horses must be officially declared as Select Series horses to compete.
J.D. Massey Classic Horse Show proudly hosted the ASHBA National Select Series on April 8th, 2026 - April 11th, 2026 in Pendleton, South Carolina, and we are excited to share the results.
