Welcome to the 2026 Beverly Circuit! This Circuit celebrates the riders who show up, put in the work, and strengthen our sport from the ground up.

New for 2026:
-Note that classes 60/61 are NOW recognized by VHSA. VHSA calls these classes "pre-novice." BHSA calls these classes "puddle jumpers."
-Jumper table II2c has been replaced with table II2d.
-Equitation classes that bridge hunters to jumpers, recognize hard-working riders (including those without their own horses), and reward skill, horsemanship, and character.
-Leaderboards recognize both MULTIPLE disciplines and MULTIPLE pathways within them: Introductory, Development, and Performance levels.
-Updated Finals eligibility will reward riders who stay local, show consistently, and build a season-long record at Beverly. We can’t wait to see you in the ring this winter and celebrate the journey we’re building together.

If a class change results in a credit on the show day, it can be used towards other fees AT THAT SHOW. A same day show class credit does not result in a REFUND absent special circumstances, such as a class being canceled outside of show management’s control, and then, only upon email request to the show secretary at bevshowsec@gmail.com.

SCRATCHES. Entries must be scratched on Strider before the Closing Date to receive any refund. Any refunds after the Closing Date are subject to a $50 Admin Fee per entry.

NON COMPETE HORSES. Noncompeting horses register as such on our Strider platform and pay the $40 non-compete horse fee.
