(A) A program of breeders' awards is
established under section

In order to register a horse and/or receive a breeders' award for a foal that
was registered after December 31, 2008, the breeder must be licensed in
accordance with rule
3769-2-24
(C) of the Administrative Code.
(1) The state racing commission may pay from
the Ohio thoroughbred race special account to the breeder of a horse meeting
the qualifications of division (B) of section
3769.083 of the Revised Code
winning first, second, or third prize money of a purse for a thoroughbred race
an amount not to exceed fifteen per cent of the first, second, or third prize
money of such purse. For the purpose of this rule the breeder shall be
considered the owner or lessee of the mare at the time the foal is
dropped.
(2) The commission may
also provide for stallion owners' awards in an amount equal to not less than
three nor more than ten per cent of the first, second, or third place share of
the purse; the award shall be paid to the owner of the stallion providing the
stallion was standing in Ohio as provided in division (A)(1)(b) of section
3769.083 of the Revised Code at
the time the horse placing first, second or third was conceived. The per cent
shall be determined in advance by the Ohio state racing commission.
(3) Ohio thoroughbred racing permit holders
shall keep records of each race for horses that won first, second, or third
places qualifying under section
3769.083 of the Revised Code,
and shall submit monthly reports to the Ohio state racing commission on the
fifth day of each month, listing all horses qualifying under said section that
won first, second, or third places during the previous month. The report shall
include the date and number of races, the share of the purse for first, second,
and third place finishes, the name of the breeders and the sires of the award
winners. The racing commission will then present a voucher to the auditor of
state for payment of the breeders' awards and stallion owners awards if
applicable.

owner of any broodmare desiring to breed or board her in the state of Ohio and
have the offspring qualify for awards under the Ohio thoroughbred race special
account must register the mare with the racing commission.

on or before the

cancelled and destroyed. Any broodmare or stallion registration which has been
cancelled for any of the above reasons must be re-registered under the
provisions and benefits of the Ohio thoroughbred race special account program
on forms provided by the commission.

division (A)(1) of section
3769.083 of the Revised Code,
and provided the registration is on forms provided by the commission.
(F) An owner desiring to register any foal as
an Ohio-foaled horse shall do so on forms provided by the racing commission.

born of a mare which enters this state before foaling and remains continuously
in this state until the horse is born.
(2) A thoroughbred foal produced within the

registered Ohio stallion. To qualify this foal as an Ohio-foaled horse, the
broodmare must remain in Ohio one year continuously after foaling or
continuously through foaling to the cover of the Ohio stallion, whichever is
sooner.
For purposes of this paragraph, the
term "enters" shall mean physical arrival in this state on or before August
15th of the year in which a foal is conceived.
(G) All horses previously
registered as Ohio-conceived and foaled will be considered as Ohio-foaled
horses effective January 1, 1976, as provided in division (A)(2) of section
