United States Eventing Association

The Future Event Horse (FEH) program evaluates the potential of yearlings, two-year-olds, and three-year-olds to become successful upper level event horses. In order to get a more complete picture of a young horse's potential, the USEA is officially introducing free jumping divisions for 3-year-olds in 2016. Through the jump chute, the judges will be able to examine the horses’ canter movement, jumping technique, jumping ability and scope. This process was introduced to the East Coast in 2015 and will be mandatory in the three-year old divisions at both the East and West Coast Championships in 2016. This video is designed to give owners, handlers and breeders the opportunity to become familiar with the process. Please direct any questions involving the FEH Program to Kate Lokey, KLokey@useventing.com.
