Show What You Know About Horses!

The Equine IQ Contest at the Brazos Valley Fair & Rodeo challenges youth to put their horse knowledge to the test for the chance to earn valuable scholarships. Participants will demonstrate their understanding of horse care, management, and industry practices through both a written exam and hands-on testing, offered across three age divisions.

Senior division contestants who place in the top five will also present a speech on a current equine industry topic, showcasing both their expertise and communication skills.
