The RCHA Breeders' Trust was developed in an effort to recognize the top producing sires and dams with offspring competing with the RCHA. It is also an excellent way for veteran and aspiring breeders to get their name and their horses' names out there and recognized.
Who Can Be Nominated and How
xx A sire or dam must have two offspring currently competing with or set to be competing with the RCHA to be nominated
xx Only the owner of the sire or dam may nominate the horse, special exceptions may be made through PM provided the horse has multiple offspring competing with the RCHA and the owner is inactive and unable to be contacted
xx Sire and dam owners may nominate all of the offspring of their nominated horse
xx Offspring owners may only nominate their horse if the horse's sire or dam has already been nominated by the sire/dam owner or RCHA staff member upon special consideration
xx To nominate, please view the "Nominate A Horse" thread
Breeders' Trust Shows
xx Every month, one Breeders' Trust show will be held at the end of the month
xx Only staff members may host Breeders' Trust shows
xx Only Nominated Sires, Dams and Offspring may be shown in Breeders' Trust shows
xx To view the Breeders' Trust show classlist, please view the "Breeders' Trust Classlist" thread
Top Sires/Dams
xx Top Sires/Dams are ranked based on the title levels of their offspring based off the "Known Titled Horses" thread
xx Offspring titles will not be added to a Sire/Dam's ranking unless the Offspring owner has submitted their horse to the "Known Titled Horses" thread
xx The RCHA staff will update the Top Sires/Dams lists when Nominated Offspring have gained new titles
