The American Competitive Trail Horse Association is counting the days until the new nationwide reality series America’s Favorite Trail Horse premieres on HRTV. The series will showcase the top 100 trail horses from all over the country as they compete in Austin, TX on the Franklin Family Ranch for $100,000 in cash.
In each episode viewers will have the ability to vote for their favorite trail horse at www.actha.us and $5000 will be awarded to each episode winner. Voting will open for 48hours after each episode has been aired. The finale will feature all of the episode winners and will award $50,000 to the top 3 horses of the entire series.
The purpose of America’s Favorite Trail Horse is to bring attention to the great American trail horse that has served this country so magnificently. ACTHA Founder, Karen VanGetson states “It is our sincere hope that this effort will cause many riders to get back in the saddle again and rescue horses that are in desperate need of a home, a cause which is dear to the heart of the American Competitive Trail Horse Association.”

TOO BAD DIRECTV ISNT GOING TO BE SHOWING IT! I CANT EVEN WATCH IT ONLINE, STUPID ANCIENT DIAL UP! ANYWAYS, GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR HORSES. HMMMM. JUST THINKING. SINCE ACTHA DONATES SO MUCH MONEY TOWARDS RESCUES AND SUCH, WHY DOESNT THE WINNERS DONATE HALF OF THEIR WINNINGS AS WELL?
Wish I could watch, but I have DirecTV and don’t get HRTV. 🙁 Too bad it’s not on RFD-TV, that’s the only horsey channel I get. Lol
I wonder what it will be like. I don’t like reality tv.
I want direct tv to have it!!!!!!!! I wanna watch this show!!!!! Please please please please make direct tv have it! Pretty please?? 🙂
You can watch on the internet. actha.tv
The gentleman Dan, and Lady that you have narrating during the freestyle constantly contradict each other and the other judges. We enjoy the show greatly, however can not stand those two. They really hurt your show!
Please try to get this program on Direct tv! Maybe RFD might cover it?????
I really enjoyed last year’s show. The mute button is a wonderful thing when dealing with, first of all, the two judges in the booth who not only contradict each other but give us useless info like what lead the horse in on(tip: it doesn’t matter on a trail horse) and the pack of people jabbering under a tree looking more like stable bums than equine professionals.
