I am not sure there are any easy qualifiers for the Desert Orchid!! This is truly the whp Blue Riband competition and the final is always a big, long, technical and tough. To actually complete the course is a good result.
Most are HoYs or RIHS qualifiers, and the Desert Orchid qualification is only for 1st or 2nd placed and does not pass down the line. Invariably this means that quite a few qualifiers go to ponies who have already got the ticket!!
You could look for the qualifiers that are not also RI/HoYs qualifiers, but don't expect the course to be easy!!! Good Luck!
ps. Still some qualifiers left this year...................

Its a pleasure to help. All this info is on the BSPS website under shows. Then go to the show qualify icon. This lists the various qualifying shows.
Yes we have a whp and will be at the champs.
