Valley Equine Super Stallion Incentive Surges Past $1.2M – And It’s Only March!
Since its inception, the Valley Equine Super Stallion Incentive has set a new standard for stallion incentives and it continues to make waves in the industry, rewarding breeders, owners, and riders in a big way. As of February 28, 2025, the program has built an impressive purse of $1,223,750 – showing to be on track to surpass last year’s total payout.
The Breakdown
Every breeding to a participating Valley Equine stallion contributes $500 to the incentive purse. That purse then fuels massive payouts at major futurities, including the National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) World Championship Futurity and the National Reined Cow Horse Association (NRCHA) Snaffle Bit Futurity. In 2024 alone, the program collected a total of $1,465,000.

The success of the Super Stallion Incentive is fueling expansion. The payout from the incentive at the futurities is capped at $1 Million, with any overflowing funds to be paid out at the following year’s NCHA Summer Spectacular. With great support from our stallion owners, the Valley Equine Super Stallion Incentive payouts will pay to eligible horses in the Open Derby, Open Classic, and Non-Pro Derby at the 2025 NCHA Summer Spectacular.

How to Get Paid
For the 2025 futurities, every three-year-old sired by an eligible Valley Equine stallion who was managed at the farm during the 2025 breeding season will be eligible for these lucrative payouts. Unlike other incentive programs, the Valley Equine Super Stallion Incentive provides an immediate effect – as the funds added to the current year payout will be collected during the same year from a portion of the current year’s stud fees paid.
