The Fund’s mission statement is:
“To promote by monetary incentives the responsible breeding of quality Thoroughbred racehorses in keeping with the founding legislation to preserve New York’s irreplaceable farmland.”

* Be sure to check the registration status of your horse prior to your first attempt to enter it in a NY-bred race. Do not assume that a registration has been completed – be sure to confirm your horse’s registration on our website. The registration of any horse can be checked under Registration → Registration Status.

* Please note that you can access a report on the status of all applications you have submitted for registration of a foal or stallion since 2017. To do so, first log into your account on the Online Registration page, then click ‘Reports.’ The displayed data can be copied, downloaded in the form of an Excel or PDF file, or printed. It is initially sorted by TIN name, but can be re-sorted by any column simply by clicking on that column. The status will indicate whether an application is in process but has not yet been submitted (‘Entry’), an application has been submitted for a horse but it is not yet registered (‘Pending’), or a submitted horse has been registered (‘Approved’). The date on which the application was approved will also be displayed. Applications will only be listed as ‘Rejected’ in cases of a duplicate application or if the horse is ineligible for registration.
