Spayed-Filly Futurity

In September at the first-ever Reno Snaffle Bit Futurity, 10 selected wild, spayed fillies were offered for sale with the prospect of being invited back to the 2018 Reno Snaffle Bit Futurity to compete in their own division for a $25,000 purse. The 10 fillies offered in this special event were selected from the Three Fingers, South Steen’s, and Beaty’s Butte herds. At sale time, all of the fillies had been spayed, vaccinated, and handled for 30 days.

The event’s mission with this initiative, according to sponsor Protect the Harvest’s Web site ( protecttheharvest.com): To showcase the significance and abilities of these resilient, tough, and beautiful horses; demonstrate their trainability; and, hopefully, encourage more people to consider a horse from our American rangelands.
