The LAS Express Gaming Series
The LAS Express Gaming Series is a horse show series held at the Lindsay Exhibition grounds in Lindsay, Ontario.
The Events
The series features high-energy "speed events" where riders and horses navigate patterns at full gallop. Key competitions usually include:
-
Barrel Racing: A timed event where riders circle three barrels in a cloverleaf pattern.
-
Pole Bending: A race where riders weave through a line of six poles as fast as possible.
-
Dash/Speed Events: Straight-line or patterned sprints designed to test a horse's acceleration.
Structure & Rewards
The series is typically structured as a summer-long competition leading up to a grand finale:
-
Qualifiers: Three shows are usually held throughout the summer (often in June, July, and August).
-
The Finals: The series culminates during the Lindsay Exhibition (the "LEX" fair) in September.
-
Prizes: Riders compete for year-end points, with top performers winning prestigious Champion Buckles and other awards.
