The Lucky Seven Classic (April 30 – May 4) is bringing something fresh and exciting to the show ring this year! We’re proud to announce that the 2025 show will feature a special showcase of the newly proposed AQHA English Versatility Class on Friday evening of the show (May 2), highlighting the athleticism and adaptability of the American Quarter Horse.
This innovative class blends hunter-style performance skills and flatwork into one class, celebrating horses who can do it all—with polish and poise. Exhibitors will compete in both Open and Non-Pro divisions, giving riders across the spectrum a chance to shine in this forward-thinking format.
What’s Up for Grabs?
We’re sweetening the experience with exclusive awards for the High Scoring Exhibitor in each division:
In the Non Pro Division, the winner will take home a Custom Hunt Seat Shirt from Custom Collars Boutique, combining standout show ring style with premium craftsmanship.

This handpicked collection includes a Kentucky Horsewear grooming bag, saddle pad, fur lined bell boots, a premium Haas brush, Kentucky Horsewear Grooming Deluxe shampoo and shine spray, and a custom Yeti Rambler. With a total value of $570, this kit is designed to keep you—and your horse—looking flawless and feeling fabulous.
