Las Vegas Open Show
This is a competition for BLM-branded mustangs, US Forrestry and wild conceived animals. The 2019 Las Vegas Open Mustang and Burro Show is for adults and youth who want to continue to compete and showcase the abilities of their mustangs.
As an effort to further the connection between the Mustang Heritage Foundation and program adopters, the Mustang Open Show was created. Since 2007, MHF has placed over 10,000 mustangs into private care. Many of these horses have continued training in a wide range of disciplines and events. The Mustang Open invites all BLM-branded mustangs, US Forrestry and wild conceived horses and burros to participate in a fun, all-around event to showcase their adopted animals and interact with other adopters and enthusiasts.
This is an open competition for all mustangs. Animals under 24 months old are only eligible for the In-Hand Division – they may not be ridden at any point during the event. Please use a new entry form for each animal. The exhibitor does not have to be the adopter or owner of record.
