Online horse show site opens competition to horse owners everywhere

Dec. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- DETROIT – Horse lovers and owners everywhere can show off their favorite horse to a worldwide audience of horse enthusiasts, and show them why their horse is the coolest in the world. HorseShow.com’s ‘Coolest Horse in the World’ is a fun, lighthearted competition with a serious prize for the winner.

The contest, which opened on Thursday, November 24, allows contestants to upload a video of their horse and to explain why their horse is the coolest. Contestants from around the world will compete for the $5,000 grand prize.

Entries will be voted on by viewers and HorseShow.com visitors, and the first entry to 5,000 votes will win $5,000. Each registered member will have the ability to vote for their favorite video once a day, for a total of up to five votes. Individuals wishing to vote in the competition can visit HorseShow.com to register for free.

“HorseShow.com is positioned to become the leader in online horse show competitions,” says Jeff Sloan, founder and CEO of HorseShow.com. “While we offer shows that are more serious, we also hold competitions that are more lighthearted, like the ‘Coolest Horse in the World’ contest.”

While the ‘Coolest Horse in the World’ contest is free, HorseShow.com offers other judged shows and competitions to horse owners. Entry fees average around $20, and contestants are graded by United States Equestrian Federation certified judges. This economically affordable opportunity opens the door for horse enthusiasts of all ages and backgrounds.

HorseShow.com competitions offer additional benefits outside of large cash prizes.
