Returning to the Nutrena AQHA World and Adequan® Select World
The 44th Annual Triangle Fall Horse Sale returns to the Nutrena AQHA and Adequan® Select World. Specializing in western performance American Quarter Horses, the Triangle Horse Sale has a reputation as one of the most versatile consignment horse sales in the country. The sale is expected to attract high-quality horses and create an amazing marketplace during the first weekend of the show, October 26 – 28.
The much anticipated $25,000 open and amateur working western rail classes, sponsored by Headley Quarter Horses, also return to the show. In addition, owners of horses competing in the open working western rail stakes at both the Nutrena AQHA and Adequan® Select World and the All American Quarter Horse Congress in Columbus, Ohio, will have a shot at an additional $10,000 in cash. Returning in 2023, Headley Quarter Horses will also generously provide a ranch-style Harris Leather saddle to the owners of both the overall open and the non-pro high-point working western rail horses between the two events. Learn more.
For a sixth consecutive year, you are invited for Prime Time at 6 p.m. on Saturday, November 11, when some of the most talented 3-year-old American Quarter Horses demonstrate their versatility at the SUPER SIRES Pleasure Versatility Challenge during the 2023 Nutrena AQHA World Championship Show. Total purse is guaranteed to be $50,000 in cash along with prizes.
