Sport Horse Incentive Program
The American Saddlebred Registry (ASR) is proud to announce the details of the new Sport Horse Incentive Program.
As part of this program, which is designed to identify and reward owners of registered Saddlebreds and Half-Saddlebreds competing in the Sport Horse Disciplines, horses registered with the ASR or HSRA competing in disciplines including all-breed dressage, driving, endurance/trail, eventing, show jumping/hunters and reining are eligible for prize money, based on their participation and performance.
To be eligible, horses must be registered Saddlebreds or Half-Saddlebreds, and must be enrolled annually for a fee of $150 for the Incentive Program. Enrollment forms for the program are available here. A Saddlebred Application for Registration form can be obtained here, and a Half-Saddlebred Application for Registration form can be found here.

Competition Report Forms
For American Saddlebred and Half Saddlebred horses enrolled in the Sport Horse Year End Awards Program and competing against all breeds at open shows, a plan has been implemented to recognize the Saddlebred or Half Saddlebred with the highest score at that competition. A neck ribbon is presented at shows recognized by national (USEF) or discipline regulated (USDF, AERC, USPC, etc.) open all breed shows. Awards will be sent upon the request of individual competitions; so if you are planning to show this year, be sure to ask show management to contact the ARS office for a neck ribbon in each sport horse discipline. Please download the form to request a ribbon for your show.

Adequan®/USDF All-Breeds Awards
Designed to recognize the accomplishments of specific breeds in dressage, these awards are presented to horses declared for a participating registry/organization (PO) with USDF. While “open” is the standard division and “Training through Grand Prix” are the standard levels for all-breeds recognition, optional division awards can be presented in the following categories: freestyle, adult amateur, junior/young rider, vintage cup, FEI young horse, dressage sport horse breeding or material.
Specific All-Breeds Award Rules
A horse must be declared with USDF for a participating organization (PO) by August 1 of the award year in order to participate in the all-breeds award program. Horses previously declared will remain declared for that organization. Declarations can be made by submitting breed papers to USDF, along with your horse’s USDF number. Owners should access the list of all-breeds awards participating organizations on the USDF Web site. Once an all-breeds declaration has been made, it cannot be changed. Exception: The owner may change the declaration of their horse to another organization with which the horse has registry papers, upon written request to USDF, for the following reasons: (1) A participating organization joins the all-breeds program after the horse has already been declared with another all-breeds participating organization, (2) A participating organization discontinues its participation in the all-breeds program after the horse has already been declared with that organization. If the horse is eligible for multiple registrations and not previously recorded with USDF, the owner must make a choice of organization for the purpose of USDF all-breeds awards only. If there is no all-breeds PO for a horse’s breed, the owner may declare for one that is participating, before September 30 of the award year.
Horse and owner must meet all requirements of the PO.
The requirements of the American Saddlebred Registry as a Participating Organization are as follows:
The horse must be registered with the American Saddlebred Registry or with the Half Saddlebred Registry of America. The owner must be a member of the American Saddlebred Horse Association.
