The American Paint Horse Association’s Chrome Cash is coming to the 2022 National Reining Breeders Classic, set for April 17-24 at the Great Southwest Equestrian Center in Katy, Texas. The program will feature $3,000 in added money just for Paints!

“We are pleased to welcome the APHA back to the NRBC,” said NRBC Secretary-Treasurer Cheryl Cody. “The show has enjoyed a long-time relationship with APHA and we love being able to provide our exhibitors with more incentives!”

American Paint Horse Association Member Care Director Freddie Alexander will be on-site at the NRBC on April 19-23 to get exhibitors signed up for Chrome Cash classes and to help register or transfer Paint Horses. He said, “We love coming to the NRBC. People have enjoyed the buckle incentives we have done there in the past so we wanted to do something more to put dollars into the exhibitors’ pockets and continue to build the breed.”

The Chrome Cash incentive program provides exclusive payouts to the highest-placing registered Paints in a specific slate of classes, along with a trophy buckle for the highest-placing Youth. Chrome Cash is run as a class within a class during the competition.
