“We hope people will take advantage quickly of the availability of online ticket purchases at Ticketmaster,” said Mason Phelps, Jr., President of the National Horse Show Association. “There is a real excitement about the Alltech National Horse Show coming to Lexington and I have no doubt that every session, especially the prime time events, will be a complete sell out.
