Requirements for Broodmare Eligibility

PURPOSE: This rule sets forth registration requirements for broodmare. (1) Effective January 1, 1992, in order to be eligible for registration in the fund, qualify for breeders’ or owners’ awards and qualify offspring for registration in the fund, the following requirements must be met: (A) The broodmare must be permanently domiciled in Missouri. The broodmare may be shipped out-of-state to be served by a stallion, provided she is returned to Missouri to resume her domicile no later than December 1. The mare may leave the state for an indefinite period of time to race, for performance purposes or for medical treatment; and (B) The broodmare must be in Missouri and registered by December 1 prior to the year the broodmare will foal. The owner of the mare shall complete an application for mare registration on a form provided by the commission. Failure to submit the broodmare registration form on or before the December 1 cut-off date (excluding Saturdays and Sundays) will disqualify any subsequent claims for breeders’ award payments or for the foal to be registered as Missouri-bred. (2) The breeder of an accredited Missouri registered foal is the owner or lessee of the dam at the time of foaling as reflected on the Jockey Club or American Quarter Horse Association Certificate.
