All American Cup Announces Revitalized Stallion Showcase & Auction with Exciting New Incentives for Breeders

New Look. Same Vision. The Premier Futurity for the American Saddlebred

Indianapolis, IN, December 18, 2020 – The All American Cup (AAC) is thrilled to announce a revitalized and exciting program, which will kick off 2021 with a COVID-safe, in person event on January 23rd, in Simpsonville, KY.  The AAC has recently revamped and rebranded its long-standing program with a new logo, new website, and extensive marketing benefits to stallion owners, including a marketing package unlike any other breeding program offered. The new website, www.allamericancup.org , will also serve as a landing spot for breeders to research stallions, pedigrees, offspring, photos, videos and more. 

For the auction itself, the AAC will return to the lifeblood of our industry by holding the event in a place we all enjoy - an American Saddlebred barn! In honor of two great legends we lost this year, AAC founder, Jim Aikman, and long-time AAC supporter, Dr. Scott Bennett; we are returning to the training facility that formerly housed Dr. Bennett’s Alliance Stud, now home to Lead Way Farm.New owners, André and Caitlin van Schalkwyk, have graciously offered to host the 2021 event, and we are excited to return to what everyone loves the most about this long-standing event – showcasing stallions, entertainment, and one heck-of-an auction!  

In order to provide a COVID-safe environment, the AAC has implemented the following precautions to ensure the safety of our guests:

    Attendance will be limited. All attendees are required to wear masks, when not at designated tables (eating/drinking). A temperature check will be administered to all guests prior to entry. Hors d'oeuvres, dessert and drinks will be provided in a COVID-safe manner, but no full dinner will be provided. All tables will be spaced for appropriate distancing per CDC & state guidelines. Auction procedures will be modified to ensure proper social distancing requirements.

“In a year that has been trying for so many, we are thrilled to start 2021 with a fun, revitalized event, showcasing some of the best stallions we have seen in years,” said Marketing Director, Kristen Wells. “Quality breeding is essential to the future of our industry, and we are so excited about the response we have received on our new program.”

The auction will begin at 6:00pm ET, preceded by cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a stallion showcase you don’t want to miss! Doors will open late afternoon, and an exact start time will be announced in the coming weeks.
