10/04/2021 NEW JACKPOT DATES!!!! URGENT NOTICE!!!!! 29th & 30th May 2021
As you are all aware it has been a whirlwind few weeks 'thanks Covid' and although we announced the show was being cancelled due to no available dates and we where looking at next year being 2022. Yesterday, by some miracle the last weekend of May 29th & 30th become available at the Claremont Show Grounds and we have jumped at the opportunity to bring the Arabian jackpot Show to you all this year as originally planned. Yes, we are aware a small amount of people are heading to the SEC to their qualifying show and this is unfortunate but we are working with those individuals to help them do both events where humanly possible (if you are affected by this please contact Jen Scott). We would love to see our competitor's and members embrace the new dates with a 'Super Positive Spirit' and the quote i see so very often used by many of our community on Facebook being 'Team Work Makes The Dream Work' this is definitely a time to let that saying ring true. Kindest regards to all - Event Organizer Kat Scott

March 2021
We have seen a lot of new members sign up over the last two weeks, if you haven't signed up yet but want to check it all out just head over to the Membership page and have a read through. You can also PM or email us any questions you might have.
SHOW NEWS - ARABIAN JACKPOT 2021
Lots of craziness in the air as we approach another Arabian Jackpot Show in April this year. We have seen some good entries coming in but we are still far from the usual numbers for this huge event. The more that enter the higher the Jackpot Cash goes so we urge everyone to share the event and invite friends and family to join us.
AWARDS - ARABIAN JACKPOT 2021
We have a massive line up of fabulous awards this year so we hope everyone rushes to enter in these final days before our entries close. Stunning large trophies for both Winners and Reserves, 2 x incredible leather dressage saddles valued at $3,999 each, Breeding's to decorated purebred and derivative stallions, 6 x Gorgeous show rugs, 10 x Gift bags full of horsey goodies, 5 x Hi Viz Horse products valued at $70 each, 6 x Aussie Slow Feeders, Cash, Vouchers, Merchandise, Rosettes, Wide Sashes, Flower Garlands.....the list goes on and on.
JUDGES - ARABIAN JACKPOT 2021
We have secured Two international accredited judges from Queensland, both judges are world renowned; Doug Rutherford and Colleen Rutherford. Head over to the Arabian Jackpot 2021 page for bio's and more. Both judges will have microphones and will offer live critiquing from time to time during the show to help the audience and competitors learn more about what a judge is looking for in the show ring and some interesting facts about the Arabian horse itself.
AFTER PARTY - ARABIAN JACKPOT SHOW 2021
Yes we will be having a fun casual after party, and although it will be held at completion of the show on day two we are not expecting a late night start as we are well aware people may have work the next day. We have had a few people ask why it can not be held on the Saturday mid show, this is unfortunately not an option as it would be unethical of us to have the judges communicate with all competitors prior or mid their judging appointment. We hope all competitors that can attend the after party do, as these amazing individuals have braved traveling interstate at a time of extreme uncertainty to be able to judge at our show here in WA. For those that are unaware, securing a judge especially of this caliber from any other state right now is incredibly hard with all the covid restrictions that surround their entry into WA and/or their return to their own state. So we are very grateful and appreciative to have them attend the Arabian Jackpot Show.

Covid-19 Update
We are monitoring the Covid-19 hard border situation between WA and QLD due to the judges being from Queensland, for now it is too early to make any decisions and we are hopeful that the border will be open again over the following weeks.

We hope everyone is coping well during these stressful times we are facing. The current situation of Covid19 is very frustrating for all of us. We have been discussing a few other possible options besides shows to keep things moving forward as much as possible. Unfortunately the All Breed Show we had planned was recently squashed when our National judges had their permits canceled.

Arabian Jackpot Show Update - Covid19
The hard decision was made to postpone this event after reading feedback from our competitors on the Facebook event page and monitoring the states restrictions and impact it has had to date . We agree with the membership and competitors that the show prides itself on the prestige of having International judges, social dinner parties and large gatherings, so it has been decided that the numerous restrictions currently in place for Covid19 would not allow for this event to run as it was originally designed and therefore we would postpone the event until such a date that would allow it to be run successfully and safely for all concerned. SPONSORS! We would like to thank you all in these very trying times for continuing to support the show, all sponsorship that we have currently received for this event will be honored and transferred to the new show dates unless the sponsor request with us to withdraw their sponsorship from this event. We look forward to bringing this show to life in 2021 and aim for it to be our best event yet! Thank you to everyone that has helped us this year with all the planning and support.

We welcome another great show sponsor! Thank you to Crystal Anderson for her Platinum Sponsorship. The Arabian Jackpot Show is highly dependent on sponsors coming forward to help us bring such an event to life, without these contributions coming in we would not be able to successfully run events to promote the Arabian horses. So thank you to all our 2020 sponsors for making this event possible.
March 2020
We have been granted a Liquor License for the Arabian Jackpot Show. This means we will have a ticketed entry to our marquee and patrons will be able to purchase drinks from our bar from 10.45am through to 5pm on both Saturday and Sunday at the event. Strictly No BYO! (Door Limit Applies)
March 2020
Covid-19
Coronavirus has not stopped the planning of the Arabian Jackpot Show, we remain optimistic and we are still making garlands, ordering awards, hiring marquees and all sorts of awesome things here at APAHO. We hope this gives our competitors something to look forward to even if we are forced to reschedule the event when the time comes.

2019
This has been a huge year for a lot of people and that has been no exception for our small APAHO committee. This year we opened up Membership for APAHO which was pleasantly supported, we also have the planning well under way for the next Arabian Jackpot Show to be held in 2020. Many months have been dedicated to seeking out a suitable alternative venue and with that comes lots of applications and obtaining licenses and all sorts of really boring stuff that is necessary to hold our events . So please know when we are quiet on social media it means we are working very hard behind the scenes to bring you another amazing show.
