The prizes at this year’s RHAA Finals just kept getting better. 👏

Contestants placing 3rd-5th in the Short Go took home these beautiful custom headstalls, handcrafted by Taylor Koziol. The detail, craftsmanship, and quality she put into each one made them extra special awards to win.

We’re grateful for talented makers like Taylor who helped make this year’s finals awards something competitors will be proud to take home.

𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚. ❤ Beyond the finals champions, several special awards were presented to recognize standout performances and contestants.

🌟 The 𝗭𝗶𝗻𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘆 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 was presented to 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘯 𝘒𝘰𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘻 aboard Ranch Rooster.

The award was created in honor of Zinn Lindsey, a two-time RHAA Champion whose life was tragically cut short shortly after winning his second RHAA National Title in 2012. Though his time here was far too short, Zinn’s legacy continues through the young horsemen and horsewomen who carry the same grit, character, horsemanship, and love for the sport into the arena each year. Presented by Zinn’s mother, Kim Lindsey, and Craig Haythorn, the award recognizes a young contestant who stands out not only for their ability in the arena, but for the kind of person they are beyond it.

A year’s worth of hard work, long miles, great horses, and consistency paid off.

Congratulations to our RHAA Year-End Champions, the highest point earners in their respective classes throughout the 2025-2026 season. Earning a year-end title takes more than one good run. It takes showing up, competing all year long, and staying steady against tough competition.

We are proud to recognize these exhibitors, horses, and families for an outstanding season. Congratulations on an incredible accomplishment! 🏆
