We had not 1, not 2, but 3 WINNERS at the 2026 RSNC World Finals!!! The Trailblazer Incentive paid out $3,000 in bonus money to three awesome customers who all happen to have the same last name! 🤠

🏆 Congratulations to Kara Doornink and her horse TERRIS REBEL GOLD (by METALLIC REBEL) for their 3rd place finish in a tough Non Pro Futurity class of 75 teams! The pretty palomino gelding was also the High Point Trailblazer Incentive horse in the Pro & Non Pro Futurity combined, earning Kara a custom leather jacket! 🧥

🏆 Congratulations to Kathy Doornink on her 3rd place finish in an enormous #8 HC class with 774 first-go teams!

🏆 Congratulations to Kris Doornink on his 3rd place finish in a salty All Levels HC class — one of only three teams to be perfect on 40 head!

This is exactly what the Trailblazer Incentive is all about — quality horses, hard work, and riders who show up ready to compete. Big congratulations to the Doornink family! We couldn’t be more proud.

Keep an eye out for the next Trailblazer Incentive bonus 💰💰💰 opportunity coming 🔜 !

Oops, this is a bit of a long one…
🎉First, congratulations to the owners of these 2026 RSNC World Finals Pro Futurity finalists!

This team took home $3,250 for their third place finish — and this isn't their first futurity check together! They were the Pro Futurity Champions 🏆 just last month at the JL All In Shootout!

We want to thank all the owners and show producers for supporting the growth of the futurity program! 🙌

Second, are you on the fence about buying a 4-year-old? 🤔

Just since World Finals last year, there have been at least 6 shows offering futurity classes — which means 7️⃣ opportunities (including Finals) to:

✅ compete for great prize money
✅ against a limited number of teams
✅ only including 4-year-old horses
✅ while getting your horse seasoned by a pro!

The Non Pro Futurity classes give owners (rated #5 and below) the opportunity to get those same great aged-event benefits! Marilee Seifert just took home the 5th place check for $1,218 on TAGGALONG in the Non Pro Futurity at Finals! 👏

📆 2026 Futurity Schedule (so far…)
1️⃣ April – RSNC Sioux Falls Showdown – Sioux Falls, SD
2️⃣ May – RSNC South Central Regional – Waco, TX
3️⃣ May – USTPA JL All In Shootout – Whitesboro, TX
4️⃣ June – RSNC World Finals – Fort Worth, TX
5️⃣ September – RSNC Eastern States Finals – Tunica, MS
6️⃣ September – RSNC Western States Finals – Reno, NV
7️⃣ November – RSNC All-Star Super Sort – Las Vegas, NV

Lastly, the is just another great reason to have a futurity horse! We believe the futurity and incentive programs are the future of our sport and we’d love to talk to you about it. (Pssst… look at cutting, roping, and barrel racing - just to name a few!)
