What Is NEBT?
The Northeast Breeders Trust Futurity and Stallion Auction
About the Northeast Breeders Trust
What began as a stallion service auction has grown, year over year, into one of the Northeast's most significant breeder-supported programs — bringing breeders, exhibitors, and stallion owners together to showcase their bloodlines for over a decade, with no signs of slowing down.
The Northeast Breeders Trust (NEBT) is how the Central New York Reining Horse Association (CNYRHA) raises purse money for its Fall Futurity — but it's built on something bigger than a fundraiser.
Every February, stallion owners from across the country enter their stallions in the NEBT Stallion Auction. When a stallion sells, EVERY ONE of his three-year-olds from that years foal crop becomes eligible to compete at the NEBT Futurity, held each October at the CNYRHA Fall Classic in Syracuse, NY. There is no enrollment or nomination that follows the resulting foal from any breedings.
It's a single entry that activates an entire foal crop. That's exactly why stallion owners with no ties to the Northeast choose to participate — and why Northeast breeders get access to national-caliber bloodlines they'd otherwise have no way to reach.
Since 2011, NEBT has brought national bloodlines into the Northeast reining pen, growing into one of the region's largest breeder-supported purses — and the only program of its kind.
For breeders in the Northeast, NEBT is a rare kind of access: a chance to breed to stallions with national reputations, at a set price, without leaving the region.
For stallion owners across the country, it's outsized leverage from a single decision — one auction entry can activate an entire foal crop's shot at a growing regional purse, plus real financial upside if those offspring perform.
For everyone, it's proof that a regional program can pull in national-caliber bloodlines, strengthen the sport locally, and give back more each year to the breeders and exhibitors who make it possible.
1. Stallion owners enter the auction. Each year, from February 1 through the second Saturday of the month, stallion owners nationwide enter their stallions in the NEBT Stallion Auction, offering a breeding season to the winning bidder.
2. A stallion sells — and his whole crop qualifies. When a stallion sells, every three-year-old he's sired becomes eligible for that year's NEBT Futurity, regardless of where or how they were bred.
3. Not sold? There's still a path in. Offspring of stallions placed in the auction but not sold can still qualify for the Futurity through a one-time $300 nomination fee.
4. Three years later, they compete. Those eligible three-year-olds show at the NEBT Futurity, held each October at the CNYRHA Fall Classic in Syracuse, NY.
5. Performance pays back the stallion owner. Stallion owners are rewarded when their offspring perform — not just mare owners or exhibitors.
