NCHA Super Stakes

{{Short description|Aged event in cutting horse competition}}

The NCHA Super Stakes is the second jewel in the National Cutting Horse Association's annual Triple Crown. It is held in April following the November/December NCHA World Championship Futurity and a few months before the NCHA Derby, which is held during the summer in conjunction with the NCHA Summer Spectacular. The Super Stakes is an event for 4-year-old horses while the Super Stakes Classic is for 5- and 6-year-old horses. The event is limited to the offspring of stallions that were previously nominated by paying a subscription fee, the majority of which is added back to the million purse offered in prize money.{{cite web | url=http://www.nchanews.com/category/shows/super-stakes/ | title=NCHA News | publisher=National Cutting Horse Association | work=Super Stakes | date=April 2015 | access-date=December 8, 2015}}
