Cuomo, Governor of the State of New York Members of the New York State Legislature On behalf of the Board of Directors of the New York State Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund Corporation, I am pleased to present this annual report for 2014. This filing shows that the Thoroughbred breeding industry in the Empire State continues to make strides in recovering from the declines that affected the industry nationwide beginning several years ago. In fulfilling its mission to “support by monetary incentives the responsible breeding of quality Thoroughbred racehorses in keeping with the founding legislation to preserve New York’s irreplaceable farm land,” the Fund herein lays out all revenue, award payments, research funding, promotional spending and operational improvements made over the course of the year. The reputation of NY-breds was further enhanced during 2014 due to the performances of NY-breds in both restricted and open-company races, and was topped by the Breeders’ Cup turf win by Dayatthespa who was voted Eclipse Turf winner in mid-January of 2015.

  • Countdown to the BCWC Newsletter #8 10.11.19
    October 11, 2019 Contact: Jim Gluckson, Breeders’ Cup, 646-335-6835 Countdown to the Breeders’ Cup World Championships Newsletter Advisory: This is the eighth of nine weekly news releases focusing on the horses and races leading to the 36th Breeders’ Cup World Championships on Friday, November 1 and Saturday, November 2 at Santa Anita. For more information, please visit www.breederscup.com. The Breeders’ Cup will be televised live on NBC and NBCSN. You can follow all the contenders’ activity leading up to the Breeders’ Cup with Equibase’s free “Road to the Breeders’ Cup” Virtual Stable notification service. Challenge Season Ends with a Bang, Classic, Distaff Highlight 36th Breeders’ Cup A six-day stretch that saw 21 “Win and You’re In” automatic qualifiers for the 36th Breeders’ Cup World Championships Nov. 1-2 at Santa Anita Park brought the Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series to a close for the year and completed all the heavy lifting for racing’s championship weekend. And while several ‘Cup races, including the Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff, appear relatively clearly defined, it’s the centerpiece of the 14-race championships—the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic—that looks as wide-open as it has in years, which only heightens the excitement leading up Santa Anita. The field for the 1 ¼-mile Classic has begun to take shape and will have an emphasis on quality and depth this year, as there appears to be no overwhelming favorite among either the handicap stars or the 3-year-olds. However, a lack of a superstar and a field that is perceived to be there for the taking means the starting gate could max out at 14, which will be sure to make the Classic the must-see that it has always been.
