[RC] Sweepstakes- - rides2far

There are some good endurance stallions who are sweepstakes...and I have
noticed quite a few of the top riders make a point of getting sweepstakes
horses. I know of some who have paid the full price for late registry to
make the horse sweepstakes because they planned on winning big rides and
it made economic sense. My new little horse is sweepstakes...and it
helped me make the decision to buy him. I've got one girl starting
college and a 14 year old who'll be there in no time. She can win
scholarship money through the sweepstakes program and I like that idea. 
I may even end up entering him in CT's someday because of it...never had
any incentive to before.

Being sweepstakes doesn't mean the horse was automatically bred to show.
Turned out the *only* horses I found with two parents who had been
successful in endurance were also sweepstakes, and the price was
reasonable.  (There's still 2 down there :-)

I decided to breed my mare.  The stallion I chose for her happened 
to be 
sweepstakes nominated.
