* Payback 75% of entry fees and 100% of added money.
* The purse will be split so that 25% of the total purse is paid in each qualifying Round and 50% paid in the clean-slate Championship Round.
* Buckles will be awarded to the winners of each D in rounds 1 and 2, as well as the Championship round for a total of 15 buckles.
* Fifteen contestants in each division from each qualifying round earn a spot in the clean-slate High Noon Showdown Championship Round. If a contestant qualifies in both qualifying rounds on the same horse, additional contestants will be added in the order they placed in the second round. If a division doesn’t fill after using the second-round times, we will put both round times together in order from fastest to slowest and take the fastest times out of both rounds and fill the remaining spots. If a contestant chooses not to compete in the High Noon Showdown short- go, no additional contestants will be added.
* High Noon Showdown short go will be run from slowest qualifying time to fastest and consists of one clean slate go made up of those 30 contestants, who qualified in each respective division in the qualifying rounds, for a total of 150 contestants and will run slowest to fastest!

* 1st & 2nd Go Draw The 1st go-round will be a random draw and the 2nd go-round will be in reverse order! We will begin with the ending number of round 1, and go back down to number 1 (ex. 250, 249, 248,… 4, 3, 2,1). In the 2nd round, you will be called by the same number as the first round, but it will be in descending order.
* Youth Horse and Rider Rule: Youth contestants may run any horse, regardless of ownership, but a horse can only be entered once in the race. You must name a horse for each entry and ride that named horse in all rounds of the race. Example: You may not ride a different horse in the High Noon Showdown round from the one you rode in the 1st and 2nd Go. Once you make your first run, you can’t substitute another horse for that entry.
