Join us as the Mustang Heritage Spectacular takes over the Alltech Arena at the Kentucky Horse Park, June 12-14, 2025.

Created and presented by the Mustang Heritage Foundation, the purpose of the Mustang Heritage Spectacular competition is to showcase the beauty, versatility, and trainability of American mustangs.

The complete format and class offerings will be announced soon!

Mustang Heritage Spectacular – Extreme Mustang Makeover

Trainers will showcase the trust they are able to build with an untouched wild horse with only a handful of months in training. The trainers and horses will compete in three preliminary classes — handling & conditioning, trail, and maneuvers. Their total points from these three preliminary classes will determine who will move forward into the Top 10 Freestyle Finals for their chance to be crowned Mustang Heritage Spectacular – Extreme Mustang Makeover Champion. With cash and prizes up for grabs, it’s going to be SPECTACULAR!

We’ve all heard the saying, “Live like someone left the gate open.”

When you donate to the Mustang Heritage Foundation you help a mustang or burro do just that.

By supporting the Mustang Heritage Foundation’s mission to bring more mustangs home, you open the gate to a changed life for a mustang or burro by helping them find a loving home outside of holding.

Your contribution helps us expand our reach, increase adoption rates, educate the public, and successfully place more mustangs and burros into private care.

Any amount helps our mustangs or burros, so please give what you can and know that your support makes an impact.
