Harness-racing’s elite summer tour now hosts hobby-horse jumping in every stop. Each qualifier runs two heights—50 cm and 70 cm—between real sulky heats, giving 250 stick-pony riders a race-day audience of thousands. Top two in every class secure a coveted ticket to the televised grand final inside Stockholm’s Strawberry Arena during SIHS in November. Entry is gratis; finalists also receive VIP passes for the international show-jumping evening. The partnership introduces käpphästar to mainstream equestrian fans and lets youngsters experience the buzz of a pro sports venue long before they meet a live horse.
