The OTOBA offers this incentive program for our Owners
who support the summer fair racing circuit in Oregon.
Breeder awards will be paid on Oregon-bred earnings during the 2024 Summer Fairs.
CONDITIONS:
Must be a registered Oregon-bred Thoroughbred
Point system: 1st place finish=5 points, 2nd place finish=4 points, 3rd place finish=3 points, 4th place finish =2 points, 5th place finish=1 point. FIVE additional points will be awarded to each horse that enters & runs at a fair meet (example: 5 points for entering & running at Eastern Oregon Livestock Show, another 5 points for entering & running at Grants Pass Fair). Points will be calculated by a representative of the OTOBA. Note: points follow the horse, not the owner or trainer of the horse.
The owners will receive a cash award. The winning trainer of each category will receive a cash prize.
If a horse is claimed:
- if the horse is claimed and starts in future fair meet races then the points follow the horse.
- if the horse is claimed and does not start in future fair meet races then the points do not follow the horse. (example: The current High-Point TB horse is claimed at Tillamook Fair and does not start another race at the remaining fair race meets; the points remain for the owner of the horse prior to the claim-not the claimant connections.)
Points expire at the end of the 2024 Summer Fair Circuit.
Owners and Trainers must be members of the OTOBA to avoid a 5% service charge on cash awards.
In the case of dispute or clarifications, the OTOBA Board of Directors will have the final decision.
Points will be awarded to Oregon-bred Thoroughbreds who place 1 through 5 in Thoroughbred races only. Mixed breed races will not be recognized for points or awards.
