AQHA - HORSE AWARDS
HIGH POINT CHAMPIONS | SUPERIOR RACEHORSE | SUPREME CHAMPION | SUPREME RACEHORSE | OTHER AWARDS
Eighty awards are given to race horses that compete at racetracks in 11 regions: - California
- Canada
- Central (Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, South Dakota and North Dakota)
- East (Louisiana)
- Mexico
- New Mexico
- Northwest (Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington)
- Oklahoma
- Texas
- West/Southwest (Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming)
- International
Each region has eight categories: three-year-old colt, filly and gelding; aged stallion, mare and gelding; distance horse; and claiming horse. In addition, high-point breeders, owners, jockeys and trainers are recognized.
The current scale awards points based on type of race, purses, and order of finish. AQHA recognizes 10 regions, the same 10 regions used in the Challenge. Technical aspects of the program are detailed in the AQHA Official Handbook of Rules and Regulations: Rule 102 (f)(3) - membership; Rule 301 (b) - racing points; and Rule 306 (d) - regional high point champions. Owners can race their horses in any region, and points are noted on each horse's record. Owners also can race in more than one region, but point totals count in each region separately. To receive the high-point award, a silver-plated champagne bucket, the owner must be an AQHA Member and be the owner of the horse as recorded on December 31 of the competition year. AQHA will award an engraved silver belt buckle to the jockey, trainer, owner and breeder earning the most points in each region. Check the current high point standings. When a horse accumulates a total of 200 points in its career, regardless of the regional point total, he is named a superior racehorse. Owners and breeders of superior racehorses receive engraved, silver-plated brandy snifters from AQHA recognizing the accomplishment. The AQHA Supreme Champion honor will be awarded to any American Quarter Horse which meets specific requirements including earning two official Speed Index Ratings of 90 or higher in races and earning points and honors in specific halter and performance events. The newest award from the AQHA is the AQHA Supreme Race Horse. The award recognizes any racing American Quarter Horse which during its career earns $500,000 or more, wins two or more open Grade 1 stakes races and at least 10 races.
