A $10,000 purse is guaranteed by OQHA for the 2019 Hunter Under Saddle Sale Stakes Class for 2 year-olds. Once 15 horses pay the nomination fees the purse will grow larger.  Just as the Western Sale Stakes Session, sellers will only pay an additional $100 to enter yearlings in the Sale Stakes Session of the Congress Super Sale.  Buyers will pay a $250 sustaining fee to keep the horse eligible.  A horse that goes through the sale ring, and does not sell, will continue to be eligible by the Seller paying the full commission and the sustaining fee of $250.

The 2017 Super Session saw 90%, of the sixty horses offered, sell to new owners.   The Super Session High Selling horse at $19,000 was Tyquela, a two year-old Western Pleasure Futurity Champion, by the Canadian sire, Ty.
