== Mongolian Horsemanship ==

Mongolian horse racing as featured in Naadam is a cross-country event, with races 9 to 18 miles long. The horses are organized into six different classes by age, with the youngest being two years old. After the races, the top five horses in each class earn the title of airgiyn tav and the top three are given gold, silver, and bronze medals. In addition, the horse that finishes last in the two-year-old class (the daaga class) is given a top-five award, in the belief that that horse will do better in the next race.
