THANK you so much for supporting MEPSA, entrants! I apologize for being disorganized and not on the ball, there has been a lot going on here.

WINNER!!

Carissa Kirksey

1. A native Marwari ethnic accessory. The Marwari is a breed native to India. The colorful tack is worn over a standard English bridle, with any type of bit. Made of embroidery floss and hemp cord, it has a frontspiece of lace, with individually threaded floss woven through. The headstall was coated with clear acrylic sealer to keep it from unravelling. The strings have been left long to fit models other than the one modeling it here. Our entrant supplied us with a link to an authentic Marwari headstall:

MEPSA 2012 Horse Of The Year Voting!

MEPSA Horse Of The Year 2012 Voting! Please vote for your favorite in each category. The winners get a large, fancy rosette ribbon, as well as the title!

One note: All these horses are winners and Champions. Some are Judge nominated. Some with detailed wins are judge nominated. All the horses are here are excellent showers, basically equal, but where I had specific information, it was included, because I was impressed with the wins.
