Louisiana Futurity Nominations on the Rise

louisianathoroughbred

The Louisiana Thoroughbred Breeders Association (LTBA) is pleased to announce that nominations have increased significantly for the 2024 Louisiana Futurity for two-year-old accredited Louisiana breds. Nominations begin when a mare is in foal, with additional eligibility payments made as the foal reaches racing age. 

The 2022 foals out of 633 mares have been nominated to the 2024 Louisiana Futurity, up substantially from the previous year when the 2021 foals out of 543 mares were nominated to the 2023 Louisiana Futurity. 

With Louisiana purses on the rise, LTBA is expecting competitive fields and a higher demand for accredited Louisiana breds.
