Rule 5.

(1) The director shall pay a breeder's award to the breeder of a Michigan-bred horse for each time the horse wins a race, including approved fair races. The total award shall be in the amount of 10% of the gross purse. If more than 1 winner is declared, each breeder is entitled to a full breeder's award. Breeders' awards shall only be payable for wins after the date the Michigan department of agriculture certificate of foal eligibility is issued.

(2) Rights to breeders' awards are not assignable. Breeders' awards are not inheritable. And there is no obligation upon the director to pay a breeder's award in excess of available funds or other than as provided in these rules. A breeder's award shall not be paid for a race won after the date of death of the breeder who would otherwise be entitled to the award.

(3) If monies are not available for full payment of both breeders' awards and state supplements, payments shall be made in full for supplements as provided in R 285.819.3 and remaining monies shall be prorated for breeders' awards.
