“We are expecting this to be the largest Futurity that the NCHA has ever hosted. This will include the widest and strongest range of competition that the cutting horse industry has ever seen. Out of all three Triple Crown events, the Futurity brings in the most excitement, largest crowds and most engaging rivalries. Working with three-year-olds is a challenge in and of itself; encouraging them to compete at this level requires great talent and horsemanship, which is shown in the arena,” states Jay Winborn, NCHA Executive Director. “We welcome riders from all over the world to the iconic Will Rogers Memorial Center for this highly anticipated event.”
The 2023 NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity will be held November 13 through December 9 at the Will Rogers Memorial Complex in Fort Worth, Texas.
