The smallest horses that you would ever see, measuring 34”and under at the withers, will be showing off their graceful gaits and flowing tails under the equidome at Westworld of Scottsdale located at 16601 N. Pima Rd., Scottsdale.

The registered American Miniature Horses will show in halter and performance classes, jumping, obstacle, liberty, driving and roadster categories. The costume class with horse and handler dressed up in costumes is a sight to see. A special feature of the infamous Mini Mystique Precision Drill Team will be the half-time attraction on Sunday, March 28. On the final day a raffle drawing for a live Miniature horse has been scheduled.

The Arizona Touch of Class Show in its 23rd year is the biggest show of the littlest horses, the American Miniature Horse, in Arizona. Horse owners from neighboring states to Arizona will be entering their horses in the exciting equine exhibitions. The horses are groomed and shown and those that win at the decisions of four judges accumulate points for national competition at the American Miniature World Show held later in the year.

For spectators, the small horses are delightful to see from the equidome seats to the barn stalls.

The admission and parking are free. Food, refreshments and vendor booths will be available on the show grounds. For more information about the upcoming event and Miniature Horses visit www.azminis.com. For show information call Gaye Velasco at 602-326-7230.
