Quarter Horse
WRCA Top Horse
AQHA sponsors the new ranch rodeo top horse awards at Working Ranch Cowboys Association rodeos.
Craig Haythorn rides Four Lil Smart, the top horse
at the 2009 World Championship Ranch Rodeo.
Now, AQHA is partnering with WRCA to recognize
top horses at all of the WRCA-sanctioned rodeos
throughout the year.
The partnership between AQHA and the Working Ranch Cowboys Association just got better for American Quarter Horses.
Recognizing the American Quarter Horse's legacy on the ranches of the American West and as the chosen mount for generations of cowboys, the AQHA Top Horse Award will recognize the top registered American Quarter Horse at each WRCA-sanctioned rodeo.
AQHA has been a strong supporter of the Working Ranch Cowboys Association and the World Championship Ranch Rodeo since its inception 14 years ago. Recognizing the horse, the owner and the cowboy cements the American Quarter Horse's spot on today's ranches, while encouraging ranches and cowboys to maintain AQHA membership and up-to-date horse transfers.
Don't leave home -- or your barn -- without your EquiMedic USA Inc. trailering (large or small) horse-and-rider first-aid kit. This kit is designed for the mobile horse owner, to be kept in your trailer for all emergencies.
The AQHA Top Horse Award will consist of a $250 cash prize to the rider of the top American Quarter Horse at each WRCA-sanctioned rodeo and an AQHA bronze trophy to the owner of the top American Quarter Horse at each of those rodeos. The winning horse must be registered, and its AQHA paperwork must be up to date.
