Inaugural Zoetis AQHA Ranching Heritage Challenge Finals
New this year, AQHA will hold the first Zoetis AQHA Ranching Heritage Challenge Finals in conjunction with the 2016 Zoetis VRH and AQHA CMS world shows.

Ranching Heritage Challenges highlight the versatility, soundness and willing attitude of American Quarter Horses that are bred by AQHA Ranching Heritage Breeders. To be eligible to compete in the challenges, horses must have been bred by a Ranching Heritage Breeder, plus all payments must be complete. For one-time only, all late fees on nomination payments for the Ranching Heritage Challenges will be waived. This limited time offer must be received by AQHA by December 31, 2016. Also, any horse born in 2010 or earlier bred by a Ranching Heritage Breeder is automatically enrolled in the Ranching Heritage Challenge.

To qualify for the finals, a horse must simply compete at any one of the six Challenges held in 2016.
