“This year marks the 15th year in which T.I.P. is offering awards, and we are proud of the success of this initiative in promoting the versatility of the Thoroughbred,” said Kristin Werner, deputy general counsel and director of industry initiatives for The Jockey Club and administrator of T.I.P. “Through 2025, there have been more than 13,000 shows that have offered T.I.P. awards, more than 48,000 T.I.P. numbers that have been assigned, and more than 114,000 award entries submitted for horses. We look forward to celebrating the talents of Thoroughbreds in a range of disciplines and putting their versatility on display in the greater equestrian community.”
