The new deadline to nominate yearlings to the European Breeders Fund is now May 31. Any yearling by a sire not registered to the EBF and standing outside Europe can be made eligible to run in the EBF programme of races–worth an additional €5 million in prizemoney–throughout Europe for a cost of $600 per yearling.
“We review our nominations process annually and as the yearling sales landscape has changed over the years we felt that it is now possible to move this deadline out to May 31st, giving breeders that intend to race their yearlings or those that
are consigning them to a sale plenty of time to nominate,” said the EBF's Kerry Murphy. “This nomination stage is mostly applicable to breeders using American or Japanese stallions
that are not registered to the EBF. Thanks to increasing support the list of internationally registered stallions has grown significantly and we advise breeders to check with us to see if their yearling does need nominating.”
To nominate a yearling, go to www.ebfstallions.com or contact the EBF office.
