Welcome to The Texas National Showdown!

    The Texas National Showdown is sponsored by The Lone Star Gaited Pleasure Horse Association Show...our club (LSGPHA) has been going strong and growing since beginning in 2000.  We now have over 200 members and offer a variety of opportunities that include a Youth Program, Trails Program, Versatility Program, High Point Awards Program and now, in addition to playdays, a Show. 

    The LSGPHA was organized to stimulate and promote any and all matters as may pertain to the history, breeding, exhibiting, publicity, sale or improvement of all gaited breeds in the State of Texas.  So come on and join the fun….
