The American Paint Horse Association’s (APHA)
Breeders Trust, an incentive program for Paint Horse
owners, exhibitors, racers and breeders, will pay

2004’s total.
Breeders Trust incentive funds are
based on a point value system, with each point being
worth a specific amount of money. The 2005 value was
$15.238 per point. Yearly dividends are paid to
subscribed stallion owners, foal nominators and
recorded owners of horses enrolled in the program.
In the Breeders Trust program, the
stallion subscriber receives 20 percent of the
dividend, the foal nominator 10 percent, and the
foal’s recorded owner on December 31 of the showing
year 70 percent.
Zippos Sensation’s foals earned the
most money in 2005, making the 13-year-old sorrel
overo the Number 1 Breeders Trust Stallion for the
fifth consecutive year. Seventy-three of his foals
earned a total of $82,091.29, which was about
$25,000 more than his foals earned the previous
year.

Bar AQHA and out of Satin N Lace, is owned by Simons
Show Horses of Aubrey, Texas. The stallion was bred
