The Super Sires executive committee recently met to discuss plans following the unfortunate cancellation of 2022 Tom Powers Triple Challenge. Super Sires has held classes during Tom Powers Futurity since 2014, with plans to give away more than $20,000 at this year’s event.
The Super Sires executive committee members have agreed that the best option for its exhibitors, as well as stallion owners, is to move the classes and monies scheduled for Tom Powers Futurity to the legendary All American Quarter Horse Congress in October. This change will increase the total Super Sires purse monies to more than $70,000 at the 2022 Congress.
The Super Sires will present NUTRENA Non-Pro Yearling Western Pleasure Longe Line (Breeders Purse) with $8,200 cash ($5,000 to first place) and will run concurrently with the Congress Non-Pro Yearling Longe Line.
As planned, Super Sires will host its EQUINE CHRONICLE Three Year Old Non-Pro Open & Limited Non-Pro Western Pleasure (Breeders Purse) event, adding $12,500 allocated for Tom Powers Futurity to the 2022 All American Quarter Horse Congress purse of the Three Year Old Non-Pro Western Pleasure class, creating a total purse for Non-Pros of $25,000, with $15,000 to Open riders and $10,000 to Limited riders.
Super Sires is excited to present a “standalone” Two Year Old OPEN WESTERN PLEASURE BREEDERS PURSE class at the 2022 All American Quarter Horse Congress, with an estimated purse of more than $20,000.
In addition, Super Sires is thrilled to present the first SALE GRADUATES class, the MID-SOUTH EQUINE Two Year Old OPEN WESTERN PLEASURE class, to be held concurrently with Super Sires Two Year Old Open Western Pleasure Breeders Purse class. This class derives from the Super Sires 2021 Yearling Sale, adding $12,500. Sale graduates have an opportunity to compete for more than $32,500. The Super Sires executive committee thanks its title sponsor for this event, Dr. & Mrs. Tony Rocconi, of MID-SOUTH EQUINE, located in Tioga, Texas. The event is slotted during prime time on Friday, October 21, 2022, at 7:00 p.m.
At the 2022 All American Quarter Horse Congress, Super Sires is once again supporting a Non-Pro Open Hunter Under Saddle Longe Line ($5,000 purse) and a Four & Five Year Old Non-Pro Trail class ($1,000 purse.)
Super Sires is thankful to the Ohio Quarter Horse Association for hosting Super Sires at the 2022 All American Quarter Horse Congress and allowing the organization to hold these exclusive classes for the offspring of Super Sires stallions. Super Sires will host its second annual Online Yearling Sale as well as the annual Stallion Service Sale in November of 2022. Both will take place during the AQHA World Show.
The Super Sires executive committee’s goal is to create a program that connects stallion owners to mare owners, as well as mare owners and breeders to buyers, and owners to trainers. The Super Sires Online Yearling Sale and resulting Sale Graduate classes are an example of the Super Sires executive committee’s commitment to creating progressive strategies that offer unique and lucrative opportunities for horsemen and women. No compensation is paid to the executive committee for their time … the drive is real to make a positive difference. By the end of 2022, Super Sires will have paid over $900,000 in cash and awards.
Entry information will be available at www.supersires.org.
