Nominate your stallions and offspring today to help shape the next generation of reining — and position their offspring to compete in dedicated Crown Jewel Nominated divisions beginning in 2030.
Great reining horses are made long before the show pen — by the stallion owners and breeders who plan each cross. The Nominator Incentive is built to reward them directly.
Beginning in 2026, owners may nominate stallions and offspring into the program. After 2029, those nominations mature into dedicated Crown Jewel Nominated divisions starting in 2030 — a new stage where nominated offspring compete and the Nominators behind them share in the rewards.
Offspring nominations begin, each with secure digital payment. Nominated horses appear in the public Crown Jewel nomination registry.
Each season builds the population of nominated stallions and their offspring — the foundation for the divisions to come.
Dedicated Crown Jewel Nominated divisions arrive — rewarding nominated offspring and the Stallion & Offspring Nominators who created them.
Stallion Nominators and Offspring Nominators each earn on their own nomination. Pick the path that fits — every fee, deadline, and form lives on that page.
Satisfy the annual stallion participation requirement through sponsorship, a donated breeding service to the Crown Jewel Stallion Service Auction, or Third-Party Stallion Nomination. The Nominator of record earns all applicable stallion incentive payouts for that competition year.
