PENNSYLVANIA An Elite Breeding Program Welcome to the fifth edition of the Pennsylvania Stallion Directory and the second published by the Pennsylvania Horse Breeders Association. “The Pennsylvania’s breeding industry has ranked in the top 10 in the nation for Pennsylvania the past 15 years by number of registered foals produced and Pennsylvania Breeding stallions sire more than half the total of state-bred foals. The numbers surged after the slot bill was signed into law by Governor Ed Rendell on July Fund has paid 4, 2004. When the first slot machines began operating in the state in 2006, a steady stream of revenue has benefited the racing and breeding industries. out over $30 Pennsylvania has always been at the forefront of lucrative breeding million on programs in the nation, rewarding those who breed, raise and/or race in the state. With the influx of slots revenue since 2006, money distributed average over through the Pennsylvania Breeding Fund has more than quadrupled! The Pennsylvania Breeding Fund has paid out over $30 million on average over the last five the last five years – far and away the richest of any program in the Mid- years.” Atlantic Region. More than $30 million was paid to PA-Breds racing in the state in 2015. There is plenty of opportunity, with an average of 450+ restricted races for state-breds over the past four years. PA-Breds can race at three different tracks offering 450 days of racing. Over the past three years, over 1,400 races were offered exclusively for PA-Breds, which included a restricted stakes schedule of 66 races totaling over $6 million in purses. Breeders are awarded bonuses of 40 percent of the purse on all Pennsylvania races through third place if the PA-Bred runner is sired by a registered Pennsylvania stallion or 20 percent for out-of-state sired runners. The potential is there to earn money even when the horse is no longer owned by the breeder, as long as the runner races in the state. Owners also reap rewards, up to 40 percent, through Awards (earned in non-restricted races) or Bonuses of 25 percent, paid through third place for PA-Sired horses in PA-Bred restricted Stakes races. In 2016, the total for ‘Owner Bonuses’ will amount to nearly $5 million paid out on top of the purse! Stallion owners also benefit with 10 percent of the purse share earned for their stallion’s PA-Sired runners. Total Fund payments can exceed six figures a year for Pennsylvania stallion farm owners.

Page McKenny, Saratoga Jack, and Disco Chick not only have their outstanding records and accomplishments in common, but they all started out as curious and excited foals. They were as playful in the field then as they are dedicated on the track now. We’d like to thank the respective breeders for submitting the photos below, that help show a different side to these formidable racehorses. As a reminder, PA-Sired PA-Breds now earn 40% Breeder Awards on all races run in PA (paid through third), effective January 2017, so there has never been a better time to book a Pennsylvania stallion.
