Breeders Challenge
The Breeders Challenge is a new program to generate prize program funds and opportunities for breeders and young horse owners in our industry.
Participating stallion owners and buyers of a stallion service from the 2023 Breeders Challenge auction will be eligible to compete in the $100,000.00 Breeders Challenge Stake.
The American Saddlebred Horse and Breeders Association (ASHBA) is proud to present the $100,000 Breeders Challenge in conjunction with the United Breeders Collation.
