Over $1.5 million in prize money was awarded across these through AHA’s Arabian Breeders Sweepstakes and Halter and Performance Futurity/Maturity programs, along with the Arabian English Performance Association, Arabian Western Pleasure Association, and the Arabian Hunter Pleasure Association prize money classes. These programs were created with breeding incentives in mind. Breeders and owners alike can win prize money through competition for eligible horses, by nominating to these individual programs.
On top of all the fun and competition excitement, the 49th Annual AHA National Youth Judging Contest took place in conjunction with U.S. Nationals. This prestigious contest allows youth judging individuals and teams the opportunity to evaluate national-caliber halter and performance Arabian and Half-Arabian horses and earn $10,000 in scholarship money.
