This is your chance to name a show jumper!

Submit your entry for the opportunity to name one of three Hannoverian foals born at Spruce Meadows this spring. The winning names are chosen from a worldwide selection of submitted entries.  

During show jumping competition here at Spruce Meadows, many of the top horses you see carry the Hannoverian brand. In fact, Hannoverian breeders have done an excellent job in developing a superior breed in the Hannoverian for over 250 years. That is why Spruce Meadows has chosen the Hannoverian Warmblood for their breeding program.

These foals have so much potential ... but what they do not have yet ... is a name! That is where we need your help. From now until July 31, 2008 we encourage visitors to our website to help us in choosing a name for our newborns.

Spruce Meadows, along with
CN and Sun Media, is pleased to present our Name the Foal Contest. It is a tradition that has become a fan favourite at Spruce Meadows, with literally thousands of great ideas coming in from thousands of great people. People of all ages join in on the fun in the hopes that that name they choose for their favourite colt or filly will carry the young horse to greatness!

After the closing date, a panel of judges will then review all of the names and choose the one that best suits the personality and appearance of each foal.


If a winning name is entered by more than one person, a draw will take place to determine the winner.


If your name is chosen, you will be contacted by Spruce Meadows sometime in mid-August and you'll be on your way to the Spruce Meadows "Masters" Tournament where your own name will appear on a special stall plaque, along with the name of the foal it belongs to. Then, you'll get to show off just a little bit when you walk away wearing a stylish new Spruce Meadows jacket.

To enter, all you have to do is fill out the information below with your name selections for our three foals!
