Culpeper Cosequin® U.S. Grand Prix League Qualifiers to Be Held at Winston National and Constitution Classic Horse Shows at HITS Culpeper


CULPEPER, VA (August 13, 2001)--HITS Culpeper, a series of six horse shows held from April through September at Commonwealth Park in Culpeper, Virginia, presents two back-to-back shows in August that both feature qualifying classes for the Cosequin® United States Grand Prix League Invitational Finals. The upcoming horse shows are the Winston National, August 15-19, and the Constitution Classic, August 22-26. The final event of the series, the Cosequin® USGPL Invitational Finals, will be held from September 26 through September 30 at Commonwealth Park. The Invitational Finals is not only the final event of the HITS Culpeper series, but also the final week in the 33 weeks of HITS horse shows in 2001 and the final event in the Cosequin® USGPL 2001 series.

The Cosequin® USGPL is a league comprised of more than 45 major equestrian events nationwide offering Grand Prix Show Jumping Events. This year's Finals will include competition in four divisions: Grand Prix, Junior/Amateur-Owner Jumper High, Junior/Amateur-Owner Jumper Low, and Pre-Green Hunters. Each division's Final is by invitation only, and the top 30 riders nationally in each division will be invited to compete without entry fees. Riders in the jumper divisions qualify based on money earned, and pre-green hunters qualify based on points earned during the League season. The Top 10 riders in each of the categories as of August 13, 2001, are as follows:
