IN MEMORIAM

IN MEMORIAM

This year’s AEPA classes at U.S. Nationals were without question, the deepest ever. All of us can be proud of what the AEPA has accomplished. I believe the unique educational opportunity that the pattern class offers, to watch horses individually, and see how their pedigrees have come together, has made better breeders of us all.

The passion that we all share for the Arabian horse fulfills us. The joys, and sometimes the heartaches, enrich us. They provide the common bond that forms our community. Each of us must do what we can to preserve and hopefully expand the opportunity for others to join.

The AEPA was founded to promote the Arabian English horse, to ensure the continuation and appreciation of these magnificent animals. Bring your passion forward again this year and purchase a breeding in the AEPA auction.

Special thanks to Arabian Horse Times and Equine Athlete Veterinary Services, for supporting our Nationals classes, and to Strawberry Banks Farm and Conway Arabians, for their support of the Keystone ProAM and Scottsdale Maturity.

Most of all, THANK YOU, to every stallion owner that donates a breeding, and every breeder that buys one in the auction. It is your love of the Arabian English horse that makes this all possible.

Remember that …

A donated breeding makes every foal sired this year by your stallion eligible for every AEPA class. No nomination fess, no forms to fill out. Every foal is automatically enrolled. (Auction foals must be enrolled in utero to receive the extra prize money) Foals that are enrolled as Auction breedings receive an extra 25% on all winnings in the U.S. Nationals AEPA purebred or Half-Arabian Futurity.

Created to serve breeders and to promote the Arabian English performance horse, get involved, breed wonderful horses, enjoy the competition, and have these horses in your life!
