New way to Split Barn Accounts: Lump Sum

This new option lets you distribute the barn’s full balance as a single “Splits” fee on entries and barn accounts—perfect for barns that want simpler, cleaner billing. You now have full control over which fees are included in lump sum splits. Plus, Horse Spot automatically saves a snapshot of the barn account at the time a lump sum split is made—so you can always review exactly what was included.

Faster Reports for Trainers: Bulk Print Tools

Office staff can now bulk print Add/Scratch reports and individual schedule reports for trainers and all of their riders—saving time and keeping everything organized in one go.

Entry Statements, Now With Payment History

Entry statements now feature a Payments section that shows the complete payment history for each entry—bringing more clarity to both exhibitors and managers.

Better Champ Charts, Now With Full Identification

Champ Charts PDF exports now include horse and rider names, making it easier than ever to read, share, and review championship results.

Quickly Spot Who’s Scratched

The entry verifications column now includes a “Show Scratch” status, making it easier to scan your entries list and quickly see who is not attending the show.

Build All Remaining Barn Accounts Instantly

You can now bulk create barn accounts for all trainers who don’t already have one in the show—including secondary trainers. Kickstart your show setup by creating the most complex accounts first, then generate the rest automatically.

Verifications Start Here: New Compliance Checks

Ensure SSN/Tax ID Compliance Automatically

Horse Spot now verifies whether a Tax ID is on file for entries receiving prize money. This setting is off by default, but can be enabled under Settings → General.

Smarter Compliance for USHJA Outreach

We’ve added a new compliance layer to verifications to support USHJA Outreach checks. Entries with Outreach memberships competing in regular classes will now raise an error, helping you catch and correct issues before they become problems.

"Compliance isn’t a checkbox — it’s a brand promise."

Organization Tools, Upgraded

Introducing Event History

Organizations can now access a full Event History view for each member, outlining every key action over time. You’ll also find a more flexible way to charge fees—including one-off custom charges and refunds without creating a dedicated fee type.

New Renew Membership Flow 

Members now have a dedicated Renew Membership experience alongside the existing “Become a Member” flow. Renewing is now clearer, faster, and more intuitive.
