owned by the breeder.
Pot of Gold Awards: To
be presented to the four 4-year-old Futurity horses who have accumulated the highest numbers of points in selected Morgan
“Futurity” classes. All Morgan “Futurity” classes count for points EXCEPT
Get of Sire, Produce of Dam and Mare and Foal. Pot of Gold points are assigned as
follows: For Futurity non-championship IN-HAND CLASSES: 1st
= 6 pts; 2nd = 5 pts, 3rd = 4 pts, 4th = 3 pts,
5th = 2 pts and 6th = 1 pt. For Morgan “Futurity”
PERFORMANCE CLASSES, double points will be assigned. For combined-age non-championship classes,
the points for each age group will be assigned separately. For Morgan “Futurity” IN-HAND CHAMPIONSHIP CLASSES,
the Champion will receive 12 points; the Reserve Champion, 10 points. Any Points earned by nominated horses
in their first or any successive Futurity show will accumulate until their Class “graduates” at the conclusion
of the show of their 4-year-old year. The 4-year-old with the highest number of Points will be named the Futurity Champion
of its graduating class. The “Pot of Gold” (prize money) for the graduating class will then
be divided and awarded as follows: 40% to the Champion, 25% to the Reserve Champion, 20% to Third Place
and 15% to Fourth Place. The “Pot of Gold” for each graduating class is a cumulative total calculated by adding
20% of the Futurity nomination fees and 20% of the participating Futurity class entry fees collected each year for the members
of that class. To maintain eligibility to receive a Pot of Gold award, a horse must continue to be nominated,
not necessarily shown, every year through its 4-year-old year.
