“We have some very exciting things in store for the Color Choice Futurity, and we’re glad to be a part of the ABRA World Show,” said Jennifer Sheriff. “One of our goals is to encourage Open and Non- Pro participation and reward the color horse breeds. The ABRA World show is followed the next day by The World Wide Paint Horse Congress and then NSBA World Show. With all of these opportunities at one location, it makes a very user friendly environment with a chance to take home lots of cash and prizes to owners, exhibitors, and trainers. ”
