The Sport Horse Nationals Payback Program celebrated its second year anniversary in November 2009, having raised a grand total of over $119,000 for exhibitors in these first two years. Funds were raised through the sales of donated stallion breeding services sold to the public at half-price. All money raised goes into payouts as no revenues are utilized for administration.

The money raised in 2010 will be paid out at the Sport Horse National Championships in September 2010, with 10% of the total going to the top two Payback sires of the show. There is also a special award for the high point Payback stallion competing at the show.

All offspring of enrolled stallions are eligible for the cash payouts in the designated Payback classes throughout their lifetime. Classes are included from Working Hunter, Sport Horse In Hand, Dressage, Driving, Jumper, Sport Horse Under Saddle and Hunter Hack.

New for the 2010 season is the Payback Young Sport Horse Futurity, a prize money program for yearlings and two-year-olds of any breed sired by enrolled Payback stallions. Horses show at their local recognized competitions and accumulate points towards a cash award at year’s end.
