Stallion Incentive Program
The IRHA Stallion Incentive Program rewards exhibitors, nominators and breeders of participating horses excelling in IRHA and Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge events. In 2024, more than $90,000 in stallion incentives was awarded at the IRHA Ranch Horse Futurity (Open/Non-Pro) and the Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge (Open/Non-Pro).
Participating IRHA Stallion Incentive Program sires represent some of the best bloodlines impacting the ranch-horse industry.
How it Works
Stallion owners must participate in the stallion auction by donating one breeding for the year’s season for all foals to be eligible to participate in stallion incentive payouts for that year’s incentive money-eligible events.
If the stallion’s breeding does not sell and the stallion owner wishes for the stallion to remain eligible, a payment of at least $500 or half of the last advertised stud fee, whichever is higher, must be paid.
Payouts
Offspring by participating stallions will be eligible for stallion incentive money as outlined at IRHA events including, but not limited to, the IRHA Futurity and the Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge held in conjunction with the American Paint Horse Association World Show.
Stallion Incentive Program payouts are overseen by Four Star Quarter Horses and paid out directly to the winners at the end of each calendar year unless otherwise stated. Stallion incentive payouts will be paid to the owners of the top-placing horses sired by participating IRHA incentive stallions in the IRHA Futurity and Ranch Horse Triple Crown Challenge classes. The stallion owners and breeders will receive stallion incentive payouts at the completion of the show year. These payments will be made by Four Star Quarter Horses.
