Tennessee Saddlebred Futurity
Our goal is “A Place for Everyone”
The country’s largest Saddlebred futurity show for 2025 according to Saddle and Bridle Magazine
We would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped and participated in the “little futurity that could”. It’s because of you we were able to achieve this great accomplishment.
The goal of our futurity is to encourage the breeding and showing of American Saddlebred horses in Tennessee and throughout the southeast. We encourage small and large breeders. Showing a foal in a Futurity enhances its value and increases its earning potential; the value of the sire and dam may also be enhanced through the success of their progeny shown in the Futurities. Amateurs and juveniles, as well as professionals, have the opportunity to show young horses in Futurities. The experience should be entertaining, to both the audience and participants, and should present the American Saddlebred at its best, providing an opportunity for fun, competition and good sportsmanship.
