Established in 2009, the APHA Breeders’ Futurity program was created to complement the APHA Breeders’ Trust program by increasing opportunities and financial rewards for Breeders’ Trust-nominated foals. The Breeders’ Futurity is a prestigious competition featuring the finest American Paint Horses and exhibitors in the world competing in a select slate of classes designed to showcase the offspring of APHA Breeders’ Trust-subscribed stallions and the mares bred to them.
Foals of 2009 were the first crop eligible to compete in the Futurity. The slate of classes in subsequent years grew right along with them; in 2010, yearling halter, longe line and in-hand trail were added and the performance classes began in 2011. Starting in 2021 all Gold performance classes will be held at the APHA World Show held in the summer and the Gold and Platinum Halter classes will be held in the fall along with the WCHA Futurities.
Competition is offered in two divisions:
- Gold – for the Regular Registry offspring and all SPB offspring regardless of stud fee.
In these divisions, the mare owner must nominate the mare to the program. - 2021 Classes*

Foals are made eligible for this division by the stallion owner, paying a minimum of $5,000 nomination fee and the Mare owner paying a $200 nomination fee in the weanling and yearling years (late fees apply). These foals are also eligible to enter the Gold division, provided all requirements, fees and payments are met accordingly.
