From now through August 18, Arabian and half-Arabian exhibitors from around the U.S. and Canada will be competing for national titles in Brandon, Manitoba. The 55th annual Canadian Arabian & Half-Arabian Championship Horse Show is one of the most important competitions on the Arabian show schedule and is considered part of the breed’s triple crown along with U.S. Nationals and the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show.
