Welcome, Region 12 Spotlight Right Holders and Futurity participants!
The Spotlight Futurity continues to thrive as one of the leading breeding programs in the U.S. As the Spotlight grows, so do our class entries at the Region 12
Championship Show each May. Typically, entries in the 16 Spotlight classes number about 110 horses. The total entries were slightly lower in 2024, due to lower breeding numbers from COVID 19 breeding years. A large increase in entries is expected in 2025. Spotlight horses pay the same show fees as any other Region 12 entry, and all fees are income generated for Region 12.
Increased participation is expected for several reasons: 1. The 2025 Prize Money offered will set a new Spotlight record. $231,004 will be offered in the Halter and Performance classes at the 2025 show which includes a $10,000 Prize Money donation from Dolorosa Arabians for our three Half-Arabian Performance classes.
2. An all-time high of 213 in-utero Purebred mare nominations, 25 in-utero Half-Arabian nominations, and 60 weanling, yearling, two year old, three year old and four year old Half-Arabian nominations were made before December 31*, 2023 to increase the number of Spotlight eligible horses in future years.
The stallion auction will once again be held in front of the Grand Hotel on Wednesday evening with the cocktail hour beginning at 5:30. We would like to thank our generous table sponsors for supporting the Spotlight. Without their sponsorship, there wouldn’t be an auction party. We invite everyone to join us.
There will be ample seating to the side of the table sponsor area with an open bar and appetizers available for a limited time.
Regards.
