Great news for pony riders competing in the JM Indoor Masters 2026! Based on the number of entries in the qualifying competitions, the number of riders eligible to qualify for the finals at Jumping Mechelen will be increased in two classes.

The JM Indoor Masters are in full swing, with many horse-and-rider combinations competing in the qualifying competitions to secure their place in the finals at Jumping Mechelen 2026.

Taking into account the number of entries in the qualifying competitions, it has been decided to offer additional spots in the finals for two pony classes.

Specifically, the number of riders qualifying for the finals has been adjusted as follows:

• Ponies 80 cm: from 60 to 75 riders
• Ponies 1.10 m: from 10 to 15 riders

Points System Remains Unchanged

Importantly, the points system remains unchanged. Results and points earned during the qualifying competitions will continue to count towards the rankings in exactly the same way.

The only change is the increase in the number of riders who can qualify for the finals in these two classes.

This gives more pony riders the opportunity to qualify for the grand finals at Jumping Mechelen 2026, in proportion to the number of entries in the qualifying competitions.

So keep collecting points during the qualifying competitions, and who knows? We might see you in Mechelen!

Best of luck to all participants!
