The National Reining Horse Association is proud to announce the addition of the Classic Equine 4D Reining Competition for exhibitors entered June 21 in the youth, novice horse non-pro, amateur and green reiner classes at the 2015 NRHA Derby. Exhibitors competing in these classes at the NRHA Derby can enter the 4D portion for an additional $20 by noon on June 20.  The 4D portion will be run concurrently during those classes. 

The 4D jackpot method is a new innovative concept in the reining world, and was first introduced at the 2012 NRHA Cowtown Classic in Fort Worth.  “We’re so excited to bring this concept to the NRHA Derby. It not only allows NRHA to test a widely popular concept in the barrel racing industry, but also gives riders a chance to win better paychecks. We are always looking for innovative ways to make reining more and more appealing to those not already in our sport and we think this is an excellent direction to grow the sport of reining,” said Shianne Megel, NRHA director of events and affiliates.
