Currently in its fourth year, the Texas Pre-Green Super Stake Series has enrolled 67 horses, and enrollment continues to climb as the last Stake classes are offered heading into the Final Championship. You won't want to miss the fourth annual $25,000 Texas Pre-Green Super Stake Final Championship class, as it is sure to be an event to remember!

Please begin planning your table and ticket needs, as details and purchasing will be available soon. Please email the Super Series Group [mailto:superseriesgroup@yahoo.com] with questions. The inaugural season of the Texas Hunter Breeding Super Series has been well received by the industry, and excitement mounts as enrollees head toward the Final Championship's cash bonuses and prizes. On-the-line Championship classes will be held for yearlings, two year-olds, and three year-olds, and will be open to all enrolled horses.

In celebration of the event's inaugural year, enrolled horses may be entered in the three year-old Freestyle Championship with NO ADDITIONAL ENTRY FEE!
