Location Announced for 2025 ASHBA National and National Amateur Futurities
Wednesday, May 28, 2025
The American Saddlebred Horse and Breeders Association is excited to announce that the 2025 ASHBA National and National Amateur Futurities will once again be held at the All American Horse Classic, Sept. 9-13, in Indianapolis.
The ASHBA Futurity program recognizes and rewards the dedication of breeders, owners, and trainers committed to raising and developing top-quality American Saddlebreds. As part of this event—and new this year—the ASHBA Prize Programs Committee will offer breeders a chance to showcase their stallions to the public during a Parade of Stallions event, as well as other special activities throughout the week.
“We’re delighted that the All American Horse Classic management is accommodating our classes and breeder showcase events for the second year in a row at their wonderful show,” said ASHBA President Smith Lilly. “We learned a great deal from last year’s event and hope to give our exhibitors an even better experience in 2025."
