Executive Review

By Tracy Egan, Executive Director

The year 2020 will always be remembered for the terrible toll COVID-19 took on human lives, the economic devastation it wrought and the tremendous disruptions it caused in all of our lives. That backdrop makes the achievements of stakeholders in New York’s Thoroughbred industry all the more laudable. From the crucial backstretch workers, trainers, jockeys and exercise riders who willingly and uniformly wore masks to stop the spread, to the farm owners and farm workers who also masked up and kept their distance from each other, all contributed to getting racetracks open and keeping the industry alive.

The front side of racetracks closed in March but the horses on the backside still needed to be fed, watered and exercised until racing was allowed to re-open on June 3rd without spectators. Meanwhile, foals were being born on farms in the state and the breeding sheds opened with new “signs of the times”: signage telling van drivers to stay in their cabs so that farm employees could handle arriving mares with the least possible human interaction.

COVID-19 forced Fasig-Tipton, the nation’s longest-running Thoroughbred auction house, to cancel its August open and NY-bred yearling sales and the October mixed sale in Saratoga Springs. The Triple Crown races for three-year-olds were held out of order, with the third leg of the series, the Belmont Stakes, being run before the other two legs. NY-bred Tiz the Law won the Belmont and the Mid-Summer Derby (a/k/a the Travers) before finishing a brave second in the Kentucky Derby when it was run in September instead of on the first Saturday in May.

According to Fasig-Tipton President and Chief Executive Officer Boyd Browning, who was in a unique position to observe the topsy-turvy industry landscape, “The New York-bred racing and breeding program continues to be the best in the United States. Despite the adversity and challenges of 2020, NY-breds continued to attract great interest among Thoroughbred industry participants. The tremendous accomplishments of Fasig- Tipton New York-Bred Yearling Sale graduate Tiz the Law demonstrated once again the outstanding quality of horses produced in the NY-bred program.”

Notable benchmarks of the past year include:

 NY-bred Tiz the Law won three Grade 1 races, including the Belmont and Travers, retiring with over $2.7 million in earnings.  Nine NY-breds scored a dozen graded-stakes wins, including five Grade 1 victories.  NY-breds averaged $20,215 in earnings per runner for the year, made more than 15,000 starts in North America and earned close to $63.4 million worldwide in a truncated year.  Auction revenue from NY-bred weanlings, yearlings and two-year-olds have more than doubled over the past decade, from $16.4 million in 2010 to nearly $34 million in 2020. Such auction results prove once again Mr. Browning’s point that New York remains the premier regional Thoroughbred breeding program.  The NYTBDF will be able to pay out 96% of awards earned in 2020.  The Fund remained the main supporter of research conducted by the Zweig Fund by contributing 2% of our total revenue.  The 2020 foal crop of 1,549 was down slightly from 2019 but remains roughly 30% higher than the decade’s low mark of 1,225 foals in 2011. Stallions

A total of 42 registered stallions stood in New York State in 2020. Breeders who use these stallions are rewarded with double the awards earned by the offspring of non-registered NY stallions or stallions who stand in other states--30% of first-place purse money vs. 15% of first-place purse money. Second- and third-placed NY-sired horses receive 15% of purse money vs. 7.5% of purse money for the offspring of non-NY stallions. In all cases, races must be held at tracks in New York State for awards to be generated.

Seven New Stallions for 2020

Future New York-breds may be a bit grayer in the upcoming years thanks to the addition of two highly accomplished gray stallions to the state’s stallion roster.

Standing his first season in 2020 at Rockridge Stud in Hudson was Patricia Generazio’s homebred world-record setter Disco Partner, a son of Disco Rico out of Lulu’s Number by Numerous. Disco Partner was one of the best turf sprinters on the planet, winning 11 of 33 starts, including consecutive victories in the Jaipur Invitational, a Grade 3 stakes in 2018 and a Grade 2 stakes in 2019, with six seconds and eight thirds. In the 2018 Jaipur, Disco Partner set a world record for six furlongs of 1:05.67. He also won five other stakes, earning just under $1.5 million. He stands for a stud fee of $5,000.

“I believe Disco Partner is a very exciting prospect for New York breeders,” his trainer, Christophe Clement, said. “He had a tremendous amount of speed, and speed is always dangerous. He also had a fantastic turn of foot, and he’s retiring perfectly sound after consistently racing for many years at the highest level.”

The gray Leofric, a son of Candy Ride (ARG) out of Lady Godiva by Unbridled’s Song, stood his first season in 2020 for a stud fee of $7,500, also at Rockridge Stud. He posted a record of eight wins, one second and three thirds from 14 starts, earning $951,040. He captured the Grade 1 Clark Handicap, the Grade 2 Fayette and the Grade 3 West Virginia Governor’s Stakes on the way to winning five of seven starts as a five-year-old in 2018.

Dr. Disco, also a son of stalwart NY sire Disco Rico, is a chestnut who won multiple stakes races while amassing earnings of just under $360,000. With a record of 8 wins, seven seconds and three thirds from 34 starts, he should prove to be a good source of soundness for breeders. Being out of a speedy Dr. Blum mare, his connections expect he will also pass along speed to his offspring. Dr. Disco is standing at Keane Stud, the same farm that stood his sire from 2008 to 2014.

Sakonnet earned a place in the stallion barn at Mill Creek Farm in Stillwater by virtue of a winning race record and the fact that he is by the late great sire Scat Daddy, out of Beckles Road by Smart Strike. He stood in 2020 for a stud fee of $1,500.

Snow Trouble landed on the Foggy Bottom Farm roster in Livingston County as an allowance-winning son of top sire Tapit, out of the Storm Cat mare Smara. Perhaps more importantly, his eighth dam is the Reine de Course mare La Troienne. He stood for a 2020 stud fee of $1,000.

Solomini, a son of Curlin also out of a Storm Cat mare, Surf Song, finished first in the Grade 1 Los Alamitos Futurity but was disqualified and placed third. He ran second in the Grade 1 Frontrunner Stakes and the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at two, and placed in both the Grade 2 Rebel Stakes and the Grade 1 Arkansas Derby at age three. He stood for a stud fee of $6,500 at McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds in 2020. Zamperini, a son of Meadow Monster out of the Lac Ouimet mare Lizotte, took up residence at Chamberlin Farm in Comstock, Washington County. He stood for a stud fee of $800 in 2020.

Becoming a New York-Bred

In order to encourage breeders to keep their mares and foals at New York State farms, the Fund has firm rules that must be followed to ensure that a foal that is dropped here is eligible to become a registered NY-bred. Breeders must make sure that their mares follow our residency rules, which necessitate that they submit mare movement information to help us establish compliance, allow their mares to be inspected by our field team, and in some cases breed their mare back to a registered New York stallion. It follows that only Thoroughbreds registered by the Fund by virtue of meeting the residency and inspection requirements can be entered in races restricted to NY-breds held at race meets conducted by the New York Racing Association and Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack. Similarly, only registered NY-breds can generate awards for their breeders and owners, as well as for the owners of registered New York stallions. NY-breds can also run in any “open” races in the state and throughout the world.

In a public meeting subject to the Open Meetings Law, the Board of Directors of the New York State Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund on October 29, 2020 adopted new rules concerning the residency requirements for dams of New York-bred foals, including certain mares purchased at public auction on or after November 1, 2019. These rules became final upon publication in the State Register of New York on or about November 18, 2020, and shall have retroactive effect with regard to eligible mares purchased at public auction sales occurring on or after November 1, 2019.

The new rules establish definitions for resident mares and non-resident mares and set forth program eligibility requirements for their foals. Under the new rules, a resident mare is a mare that is continuously in residence in New York State from date of conception in New York State or within 120 days after her last cover in the year of conception occurring outside of New York State, and that remains in the State until foaling the following year, with no breed-back required. Mares that maintain their New York State resident status can be covered each season by a stallion located anywhere in the world.

A non-resident mare is a mare that does not qualify as a resident mare. However, under the new rules, a non- resident mare that is purchased in foal through public auction will be deemed to be a resident mare for all purposes if all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the mare is purchased for at least $50,000 at public auction, (2) the mare is present in New York State within 15 days after the sale is concluded, (3) the foal from public auction mare is foaled in New York State, and (4) the mare thereafter is continuously in residence in New York State from within 120 days after her last cover in the year of conception of another foal and remains in residency until foaling.

Breeding Fund Chairman John Poklemba noted, “These changes will bring the New York Thoroughbred breeding program more in line with other states by removing perceived barriers to mares locating here. Also, by allowing high-priced mares to establish residency by moving to New York after they are purchased at auction, we expect to see even more quality New York-breds following in the hoofprints of G1 winners such as Tiz the Law and Simply Ravishing.” The Board reserves the right to review the threshold price annually at its summer meeting and adjust it as needed to recruit quality mares. As of December 31, 2020, 38 mares purchased for at least $50,000 had been relocated to New York State farms in anticipation of delivering state-bred foals in 2021.

Revenue

The total operating revenues of $11,701,505 in 2020 represent a decrease of $7,720,925 from 2019 revenues. This was chiefly due to a decrease in Fund revenue from VLTs ($6.6M) and handle ($1.9M), offset by an increase of $850K in ADW revenue.

It should be noted that in 2014 VLT revenues from Resort World Casino in Aqueduct and Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack accounted for approximately 64% of the Fund’s total operating revenues, whereas in 2020 their contribution to revenue dropped to 40%. Due to the addition of a VLT recapture beginning in 2016, the Fund was able to recognize additional revenues of $1.2M in 2020, which increased the percentage of revenues generated from all VLT revenue sources to 50% of total operating revenues.

Awards and Purse Enrichment

Awards

Breeders, owners and stallion owners earned $8,828,774 in awards in 2020.

Purse Enrichment

The Fund supplied $1,062,109 in purse enrichment to NYRA and Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack in 2020.

Equine Research

The annual contribution of 2% of the NY Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund’s revenue to the Harry M. Zweig Fund at Cornell University makes the Fund the largest single contributor to the research group. The 2020 payment of $234,030 to the Harry M. Zweig Fund supported research into issues such as the causes and possible cures for equine respiratory and influenza problems, colic in foals, embryonic stem cell research, and mapping the horse genome.

Financial Review

Under founding statutes, the Fund receives revenue from on-track and off-track Thoroughbred handle in New York, and breakage from regional off-track wagers. Total handle accounted for 30 percent and 28 percent of operating revenue in 2020 and 2019, respectively, while breakage accounted for approximately 2 percent of operating revenue for both years.

The Fund obtained an additional contractual source of revenue from Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs) at Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack beginning in 2004, which provided approximately 5 percent of total operating revenue in 2020 and 7 percent in 2019. Further enhancing Fund revenues, Resorts World Casino New York City began operation of VLTs at Aqueduct Racetrack in late 2011. Statutory revenue received from this operation was approximately $4.1 million in 2020 and $10.2 million in 2019, or 35 percent and 52 percent of total operating revenue, respectively. The VLT recapture for 2020 of $1.2M provided additional support, increasing the percentage of operating revenue from all VLT revenue sources in 2020 to 50 percent versus 64 percent in 2019.

Effective January 1, 2014, legislation provided for the Fund to receive revenues from Advanced Deposit Wagering (ADW) sources. Due to on-track restrictions in 2020 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, an increase in ADW revenue accounted for 16 percent of the Fund’s total operating revenue in 2020 versus 5 percent in 2019.

Total 2020 operating revenues of approximately $11.7 million were significantly lower than in 2019. The Fund was able to pay out 96% of all breeder, stallion and owner awards earned in 2020.

Administration and promotional expenses were considerably reduced, with the elimination of all discretionary spending and reductions in Fund staffing. Administration expenses of $734,807 represent 6.3 percent of total operating revenues in 2020. Promotional expenses of $879,881 represent 7.5 percent of 2020 total operating revenues, and includes $20,250 of promotional support for TAA-approved aftercare facilities.

Statutes dictate that the Fund pays the Harry M. Zweig Memorial Fund of Cornell University 2 percent of its operating revenues to fund equine research. The amount payable to Cornell University for 2020 is $234,030. This is a $154,419 decrease from the 2019 total and is a result of the decrease in the Fund’s revenues due to the pandemic.

Mares & Foals Mare Report

The 2020 New York foal crop of 1,549 foals represents a 3.5% decline from the state’s previous year’s foal crop of 1,606 foals. Though it was the third year in a row that fewer foals were born in the state, the 2020 crop remains about 30% larger than the pre-VLT low of 1,222 foals in 2011.The desire to increase the size of the foal crop was one of the reasons the Fund Board made changes to breed-back rules in 2020. Readers can find details at NYBreds.com under Mares -> Resident and Non-Resident Mares.

The chart below shows that for the second year in a row more New York foals are by out-of-state or nonregistered NY stallions than by stallions registered with the NY Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund.

Sired by Registered NY Sires: 686 44% Sired by Out-of-State Sires or Non-Registered NY Sires: 863 56% Total Foals: 1,549

New York-Bred Auction Summary

NY-BREDS AT AUCTION: 2020

The crippling effects of the COVID-19 pandemic hit every segment of North America’s Thoroughbred industry in 2020, with the continent’s bloodstock markets arguably taking the biggest toll. Every major market sector was hit, and declines were seen in sales of weanlings, yearlings, two-year-olds in training and broodmares after the pandemic forced travel restrictions, canceled or postponed sales, and brought uncertainty to the industry.

The New York-bred bloodstock market, which enjoyed a decade of unprecedented growth from 2010 to 2019, during which the total sales rate more than tripled, retracted almost in lockstep with the North American markets in 2020.

The largest segment of the New York-bred industry – yearling sales – was affected the most before even getting underway. After the onset of the pandemic significantly altered the major sales of two-year-olds in training earlier in the year, the state’s centerpiece Fasig-Tipton Saratoga New York-bred Yearling Sale was canceled, as was the Saratoga Select Yearling Sale, while the Saratoga Race Course meeting was conducted without spectators and a limited presence of owners and breeders.

Sales of New York-bred yearlings dropped by 33.7%, from $28,619,017 in 2019 to $18,987,400 in 2020. The 2020 decline followed a 14.5% drop a year before and was not far off the overall North American decline of 28.3%. Nearly all New York-bred yearlings were sold during an eight-week window starting with Fasig- Tipton’s Selected Yearling Showcase in September – which combined the Saratoga New York-bred, Saratoga Select and July Select sales at the company’s Kentucky facility – and ending with Fasig-Tipton’s October yearling sales in Maryland and Kentucky. Keeneland also saw a significant number of New York-breds sell during its September sale, and the year’s three most expensive yearlings were sold at that venue.

The most expensive New York-bred yearling in 2020 was a colt by leading sire Tapit out of Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint winner Bar of Gold, bred by Chester and Mary Broman and sold by Becky Thomas’ Sequel New York consignment for $450,000 to D.J. Stable.

The Bromans and Thomas also teamed up to sell the co-second most expensive yearling, a $400,000 colt by Curlin out of Beautiful But Blue purchased by SF Racing, Starlight Stables and Madaket Stables. Another yearling, a filly by Ghostzapper out of Lady of the Nile bred by Pine Ridge Stables and sold by Dromoland Farm, went for $400,000 to Three Amigos.

Those three yearlings helped drive Keeneland’s average price for New York-breds to $80,883. Overall, 416 New York-breds sold for an average of $45,643 at all sales in 2020, down 20.7% from 2019 but on par with 2016’s average and higher than every other average prior to 2013.

Sales of New York-bred two-year-olds, which saw three straight years of growth from 2017 to 2019, were also negatively affected by the pandemic that hit the U.S. just as the major sales were about to begin. The Ocala Breeders’ Sales Co. in Ocala, FL conducted its March sale of selected two-year-olds in training March 17-18, but the remainder of the calendar was shifted to later in the spring and into the summer due to the pandemic. With the number of two-year-olds sold down 14.2%, gross sales dropped by 34.7% from $19,005,997 in 2019 to $12,419,922 in 2000, and the average slipped 23.8% to $55,695. Despite these declines, gross receipts, average price and median ($25,000, down 28.6%) were significantly higher than figures from the early 2000s, and were in line with those from the mid-2000s through 2013. 34

The most expensive New York-bred to sell at public auction in 2020 came from a two-year-old in training sale – a colt by Speightster out of the Indian Charlie mare Auspicious who sold for $1.1 million to Larry Best’s OXO Equine at the OBS Spring sale of two-year-olds in training that was shifted from its usual April dates to early June. A $110,000 buy in 2019 at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga New York-bred yearling sale, the colt was bred by Danzel Brendemuehl Classic Mares.

The New York-bred weanling market also dipped for the third year in a row, with 49.2% fewer weanlings sold (63) for a combined $2,566,900. That total was the lowest since 2011 and represents a decline of 46.7% from the 2019 figure. Not all was negative in the weanling market, however, with the average price for a New York- bred in 2020 up 4.9% to $40,744, and the median up 11.1% to $25,000.

New York-bred sales statistics are based on data from The Jockey Club. National sales statistics are derived from the Blood-Horse, “2020 Auction Digest” (December 19/December 26, 2020, pp. 69-179). Statistics from Keeneland, Fasig-Tipton and OBS are based on company data.

New York-Breds at the Races

An Unforgettable Year and an Unforgettable New York-Bred

Nobody will ever forget 2020 due to the global coronavirus pandemic that took so many lives, devastated many others and nearly canceled all sports. Horse racing stopped, but then started again with a new normal: masks on every face, social distancing, temperature checks and, for most of the year, no fans at the tracks.

Against such a disturbing backdrop, Sackatoga Stable’s three-year-old New York-bred colt Tiz the Law reset the standards for New York-bred excellence in a single year with victories in three Grade 1 stakes ̶ the Florida Derby, Belmont and Travers ̶ a second in the Grade 1 Kentucky Derby and a victory in the Grade 3 Holy Bull Stakes. In doing so, he enabled Sackatoga Stables and its managing partner Jack Knowlton, trainer Barclay Tagg and his significant other/assistant trainer/exercise rider Robin Smullen to achieve a historic feat: winning the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, the Belmont Stakes and the Travers Stakes with New York-breds. It took two horses and 17 years to complete what their New York-bred gelding Funny Cide started by taking the 2003 Kentucky Derby and Preakness, which probably made it even sweeter for his connections.

“All the credit in the world goes to Barclay,” Knowlton said on January 12th. “Everybody’s going to remember last year, the big races out of order, no fans. One of my favorite pictures is from the infield with Tiz leading and empty grandstands in the background. Those memories will last forever. It’s part of the year that nobody could have imagined.”

Twin Creeks Farm bred Tiz the Law, a son of first-year stallion Constitution out of Tizfiz by Tiznow who sold for $110,000 at the 2018 Saratoga Yearling Sale.

But Tiz the Law was far from the only New York-bred to win in open company in 2020. New York-breds won open stakes from January 4th through December 13th at Aqueduct, Belmont Park, Delaware Park, Gulfstream Park, Keeneland, Los Alamitos, Monmouth Park, Sam Houston and Saratoga.

Concurrently, New York-breds finished first in the country in total purses for state-bred races ($29,864,100) with only the third-highest number of races for state-breds (521). There were 793 and 596 races held for Louisiana-breds and Ohio-breds, but for total purses of $20,646,500 and $15,184,800, respectively.

Tiz the Law’s four victories, one second and his sixth-place finish in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Classic as the favorite produced a staggering $2,388,300 in earnings from six starts. No other New York-bred topped half a million dollars in earnings in 2020.

However, 49 other New York-breds earned more than $120,000 during the year, including a pair of two-year- old Grade 1-winning fillies.

Baoma Corporation’s two-year-old filly Varda, a daughter of Distorted Humor out of She’ll Be Right by Sky Mesa, was bred by Masters 2013 LLC and the Distorted Humor Syndicate. Masters 2013 is comprised of Joe Appelbaum, president of the New York Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association, Michael Doheny and Tom Coleman. Varda, purchased last April for $700,000, posted two victories, one in the Grade 1 Starlet Stakes at Los Alamitos, and a second in a Grade 2 stakes in just three starts to earn $254,500, placing her ninth among New York-breds for the year.

Simply Ravishing, owned by Harold Lerner LLC and Magdalena Racing, opened her career with three victories. She followed a maiden score with a 6 ½-length victory in the P. G. Johnson Stakes at Saratoga and a 6 ¼-length romp in the Grade 1 Alcibiades Stakes at Keeneland. She ended her season with fourth-place finishes in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies at Keeneland and the Grade 2 Golden Rule at Churchill Downs. Bred by Meg Levy, the $50,000 yearling by Laoban out of the More Than Ready mare Four Wishes earned $414,200, third highest among all New York-breds in 2020.

There almost was a fourth Grade 1-winning New York-bred last year, but John Fanelli, Cash Is King LLC and Paul Braverman’s three-year-old Ny Traffic lost by a nose to Authentic in the $1 million Haskell Stakes at Monmouth Park on July 18th. Authentic went on to win the Kentucky Derby and the Breeders’ Cup Classic. Ny Traffic, a son of Cross Traffic out of the Graeme Hall mare Mamie Reilly, was bred by Brian Cullnan. With one victory, three seconds and one third from seven starts, Ny Traffic was the second highest-earning New York- bred in 2020, at $494,900.

Tiz the Law was in a league of his own, confirming the immense potential he showed as a two-year-old, when he won the Grade 1 Champagne Stakes.

His three-length victory in the Holy Bull Stakes in his three-year-old debut at Gulfstream Park on February 1st stamped him as the favorite for the Grade 1 Florida Derby on March 28th.

If there was even going to be a Florida Derby, that is. The pandemic hit the United States first. “I was scared to death that the Florida Derby wasn’t going to happen,” Knowlton said. “One Florida official wanted to close it down.”

But the Florida Derby was run, and Tiz the Law ran to an easy 4 ½-length victory.

Now what?

Piece by piece, a new schedule was created for the Triple Crown. Churchill Downs announced that the Kentucky Derby would be held the first Saturday in September instead of May. The New York Racing Association reduced the mile-and-a-half Belmont Stakes to a mile-and-an-eighth and rescheduled it for June 20th. NYRA also re-scheduled the Travers for August 8th. And Pimlico announced that the Preakness Stakes would be held October 3rd.

Somehow, trainer Barclay Tagg kept Tiz the Law ready, deciding to train his colt up to the Belmont Stakes, which would be first sporting event held in the greater New York Metropolitan area in three months. Tiz the Law won the Belmont by 3 ¾ lengths, becoming the first New York-bred to win the race since Forester in 1882. As New York Racing Association announcer John Imbriale called, “New York’s Belmont Stakes is being won by New York-bred Tiz the Law.”

As impressive as that score was, Tiz the Law was even better in the Travers, a race cherished by Knowlton, who has worked and lived in Saratoga Springs for most of his adult life. Despite being taken well in hand, Tiz the Law won by 5 ½ lengths. “It was…” Knowlton paused, before continuing, “I’d been to every Travers since 1980 and a number of them in the ‘70s, and after missing the opportunity with Funny Cide (who got sick before the Travers), it’s almost indescribable how happy we were. A hometown hero. A New York-bred made everybody proud. From my early days of seeing him breeze as a two-year-old at Saratoga, not only going fast but galloping out with the rider having trouble pulling him up, I think he did more than anybody could imagine.”

37

To keep his asterisk-marked Triple Crown bid alive, Tiz the Law had to win the Kentucky Derby. He went off the 3-5 favorite but was repelled by front-running Authentic, who won by a length and a quarter.

Bettors gave him a mulligan and sent him off the 3-1 favorite when he took on older horses in the Breeders’ Cup Classic, which was also won by Authentic.

Tiz the Law was freshened and pointed to the Grade 1 Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Park on January 23rd to begin his four-year-old season, but Smullen felt he hadn’t breezed right one morning, and X-rays revealed severe bone bruising. “If he remained in racing, you were inviting a catastrophic breakdown,” Knowlton said. Quickly, Tiz the Law was retired to begin his stud career at Coolmore America’s Ashford Stud in Versailles, Kentucky.

His career records stands at six victories, including four Grade 1 stakes, with one second, one third and earnings of $2,735,300 in only nine starts.

And Knowlton, Tagg and Smullen will head to 2021 sales hoping for another New York-bred game-changer. “Barclay and I have been going to sales for decades,” Knowlton said. “We don’t play in the marketplace the big guys do. We’re limited in funds. Many times, there are horses we just can’t afford. We have found that there is much more value in New York-breds. They are the best chance to have some fun and financial success, getting your picture taken in the winner’s circle.”

Three other New York-breds found their way to the winner’s circle after Grade 2 triumphs, and three more won Grade 3 stakes in 2020.

Mark Schwartz’s two-year-old gelding Brooklyn Strong finished the year strong, taking the Grade 2 Remsen Stakes at Aqueduct on December 5th. Previously, the son of Wicked Strong out of Riviera Chic by Medaglia d’Oro, bred by Cheryl Prudhomme and Dr. Michael Gallivan and purchased for a mere $5,000 in April, won an open maiden $40,000 claimer then finished third by 2 ¼ lengths in the $100,000 S.F. Bongard Stakes for state- breds and first by 2 ¼ lengths in the $150,000 Sleepy Hollow Stakes on NY-Bred Showcase Day October 24th. His three-for-four record with one third was good for $195,000 in earnings, nearly 40 times his purchase price and 20th best among New York-breds in 2020.

In a span of just five days at Saratoga, Shychai Racing and David Koenig’s Sand Dollar Stable’s homebred Somelikeithotbrown and Three Diamond Farm’s Cross Border won Grade 2 stakes.

Somelikeithotbrown, a four-year-old son of Big Brown out of the Tapit mare Marilyn Monroan, captured the Grade 2 Bernard Baruch Handicap on July 26th. Previously, Somelikeithotbrown won the Grade 3 Jeff Ruby Steaks at Turfway Park. After the Bernard Baruch Handicap, Somelikeithotbrown won the Mohawk Stakes on Showcase Day at Belmont Park. Somelikeithotbrown finished the year with three victories, two seconds and one third from nine starts, good for earnings of $277,860, seventh highest among New York-breds in 2020.

Cross Border won the Lubash Stakes for New York-breds on July 22nd, followed by the Grade 2 Bowling Green on August 1st. Berkshire Stud and B.D. Gibbs bred the six-year-old son of English Channel out of Empress Josephine by Empire Maker who, in his next start after the Bowling Green, finished second in the Grade 1 Sword Dancer. Cross Border was fourth among state-breds in 2020 with $388,200 in earnings off two victories, four seconds and one third in nine starts.

Dot Matrix, Ten Strike Racing’s seven-year-old gelding, won just one of eight starts, but it was the right one: the Grade 3 John B. Connolly Turf Cup Stakes at Sam Houston on January 26th. Truxton Stables bred the son of

38

Freud out of the Gulch mare Aunt Dot Dot, who also had two seconds from eight starts, for earnings of $181,250.

Barry Schwartz’s homebred three-year-old gelding Sharp Starr, a son of Munnings out of Mindy Gold by A.P. Indy, capped an outstanding season by taking the Grade 3 Go for Wand Stakes at Aqueduct on December 5th. That gave Sharp Starr three victories, two seconds and one third from eight starts, good for $166,815 in earnings.

Tristan Stable’s homebred six-year-old gelding Red Knight, a son of Pure Prize out of the Skip Away mare Isabel Away, raced only four times last year but made the most of it. After finishing fourth in the Grade 3 W. L. McKnight at Gulfstream Park on January 26th, he came back off a long rest to finish second in the Grade 3 Kentucky Tur Cup at Kentucky Downs on September 12th. He then captured the Grade 3 Sycamore Stakes at Keeneland before finishing second in the Grade 3 Red Smith at Aqueduct on November 21st. He earned $223,900 in 2020.

One of racing’s truly popular horses, Chester and Mary Broman’s seven-year-old homebred Mr. Buff, won three stakes in 2020: the Jazil on January 25th and the Haynesfield for New York-breds on February 22nd, both at Aqueduct, and the $175,000 Empire Classic, the highlight of NY-Bred Showcase Day at Belmont on October 24th. The son of Friend Or Foe out of Speightful Affair by Speightstown also had two seconds from eight starts, finishing fifth in earnings among NY-breds in 2020 with $307,500.

Bankit’s one victory came in his last of 12 starts in for the year in the Alex M. Robb Stakes for New York- breds on December 12th at Aqueduct. Owned by Winchell Thoroughbreds and Willis Horton Racing, the son of Central Banker out of Sister in Arms by Colonel John was bred by Hidden Brook Farm and Blue Devil Racing. By finishing second four times and third thrice in his other 11 races, Bankit earned $278,850, sixth best among New York-breds in 2020.

The last New York-bred stakes winner of the year was Ten Strike Racing’s Lucky Move, who took the Bay Ridge Stakes at Aqueduct on December 13th. In her previous start, the six-year-old mare, a daughter of Lookin At Lucky out of Quiet Mover by Quiet American bred by Maltese Cross Stables and Stonegate Stables, took the $175,000 Empire Distaff on NY-Bred Showcase Day at Belmont Park October 24th. Her three victories, one second and one third in nine starts produced $257,849 in earnings, eighth best among NY-breds for 2020.

Finishing 10th in earnings among state-breds with $238,894 was McCourt Racing’s four-year-old filly Prairie Fire, a daughter of Posse out of Swallow Falls by Smoke Glacken bred by Mary E. Eppler Racing Stable and A. Leonard Pineau. She had four victories, four seconds and a pair of thirds from 12 starts for the year.

Despite losing race dates due to the pandemic, the New York Racing Association held two Showcase Days in 2020 featuring all New York-breds in stakes and other races, and plan three for 2021. The first Showcase Day of 2020 came on September 4th at Saratoga and featured six stakes. Lawrence Goichman’s homebred Myhartblongstodady won the Yaddo; Bond Racing Stable’s Rinaldi took the West Point; Richard Nicolai’s Fortune Farm’s Makingcents won the Fleet Indian; Chester and Mary Broman and West Point Thoroughbred’s Chestertown won the Albany Stakes; Gold Square LLC, Its All About The Girls Stable, Paul Braverman, Fortune Farm and Harlow Stables’ Samborella won the Seeking the Ante Stakes; and Thin White Duke finished first in the Funny Cide Stakes. Trainer Phil Gleaves, breeder of Thin White Duke, co-owns him with Steve Crist, Ken deRegt and Bryan Hilliard.

39

Myhartblongstodady, a five-year-old mare by Scat Daddy out of Elusive Rumour by Elusive Quality, had an outstanding season, posting three victories, including the Ticonderoga Stakes on the second Showcase Day October 24th, and a third in four starts, good for 2020 earnings of $213,850.

Barry Ostrager bred Rinaldi, a four-year-old gelding by Posse out of the Dynaformer mare Dynamic Cocktail, who also won two divisions of the New York Stallion Stakes Series in compiling a 2020 record of two victories and one second in five starts, for earnings of $141,850.

Makingcents, a three-year-old filly by Goldencents out of Mischief Maker by Cape Town, was bred by Windhorse Thoroughbreds. After taking the Fleet Indian Stakes, Makingcents finished third in the Empire Distaff. She won three of her six starts in 2020, with three thirds and earnings of $183,380.

Chester and Mary Broman bred Chestertown, a son of Tapit out of the incredible mare Artemis Agrotera by Roman Ruler who sold for a record $2 million as a two-year-old. As a three-year-old, Chestertown had two wins and three seconds in eight starts, accumulating $167,775 in earnings.

Samborella won the Seeking the Ante Stakes in just her second career start. The daughter of Outwork out of the Tiznow mare Light and Variable was bred by WinStar Farm. Thin White Duke, a two-year-old gelding, is by Dominus out of the Distorted Humor mare Aberdeen Abby. He finished in the money in all seven of his starts, with two victories, two seconds and three thirds, good for $214,091 in earnings.

Eight stakes raced were run on the second NY-Bred Showcase Day at Belmont Park on October 24th. In addition to Lucky Move, Myhartblongstodady, Somelikeithotbrown, Mr. Buff and Brooklyn Strong, Robert Brittingham, Salvatore De Bunda and Wire to Wire Stables’ Collegeville Girl captured the Iroquois Stakes, Ronald Brown’s Tribecca took the Hudson, and owner/trainer’s Daniel Velazquez’s Laobanonaprayer won the Maid of the Mist.

Andy Beadnell bred Collegeville Girl, a four-year-old daughter of Central Banker out of Lifelong by Vindication who had three victories, one second and one third in eight 2020 starts, earning $155,258.

Tribecca followed his victory in the Hudson with a fourth-place finish in the Grade 3 Fall Highweight Handicap. The six-year-old gelding, a son of Bustin Stones out of Heck by Heckle, was bred by Laurel Least and Joseph Lech. Tribecca earned $169,413 off three victories and one second in six 2020 starts.

Laobanonaprayer, a two-year-old daughter of Laoban out of Raffie’s Chance by Raffie’s Majesty bred by Christina Deronda, progressed rapidly in her first season of racing. She followed a third and a second in a pair of maiden special weights with victories in the Maid of the Mist and a division of the New York Stallion Stakes Series, earning $232,400 for the year. Five more New York-breds completed the top 20 in earnings for the year: Hold the Salsa (11th), Funny Guy (13th), Lead Guitar (17th), Letmetkethiscall (18th) and Danny California (19th).

Richard Lugovich, who bred, owns and trains his two-year-old colt Hold the Salsa, had a banner year in 2020. Hold the Salsa, a son of Hold Me Back out of Northern Mambo by King Cugat, won his maiden debut, then added the Bertram Bongard Stakes and a division of the New York Stallion Stakes Series. His three victories in six starts netted $237,775 in 2020 earnings.

Gatsas Stables, R.A. Hill Stable and Swick Stable’s four-year-old colt Funny Guy, a son of Big Brown out of Heavenly Humor by Distorted Humor, was bred by Hibiscus Stables. His three victories in six 2020 starts came

State & Regional Comparisons

New York

Precautions taken due to the COVID-19 pandemic caused racetracks around the world to shut down for significant periods of time during 2020. Fortunately for stakeholders in New York, management at NYRA tracks and the Finger Lakes implemented safety precautions that allowed them to keep their backstretch facilities operating. NYRA ceased operations on March 19th and reopened for racing on June 3rd, while Finger Lakes reopened on July 20th, both without spectators. Only a limited number of essential personnel and owners were allowed on the tracks. The lack of on-track attendees was critical to the Fund because it receives revenue from on-track NYRA handle but no revenue from simulcast handle. So while the NYRA handle fell by 14% compared to the $2.1 billion generated in 2019, Fund revenue from handle fell by even more because it does not share in NYRA’s simulcast revenue and shares only in on-track handle. The bright spot during the year was that there was a significant uptick in business through NYRA Bets, which is treated as on-track revenue.

The incentives provided by New York’s Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund, coupled with the high purses at NYRA tracks and plentiful restricted-racing opportunities for registered NY-breds, continued to make the New York program the envy of other states in 2020. The Fund responded to increased competition for the broodmares so critical to foal-crop size by making changes to residency requirements (details can be found at NYBreds.com).

Indiana

The Indiana Thoroughbred Breed Development Program in 2020 began to offer incentives of up to $2,000 for new mares foaling in the state. To be eligible for an incentive of $1,000, an in-foal mare must be purchased at public auction between November 1, 2019 and March 1, 2020 for a minimum purchase price of $5,000. The new owner is required to provide proof of purchase and the mare must not have been previously registered with the Indiana Thoroughbred Breed Development Program. Further, the mare must be registered with the Indiana Horse Racing Commission prior to foaling, foal in Indiana, and remain in the state for at least 30 days after foaling. The owner is eligible to collect an additional $1,000 incentive by breeding the mare back to a stallion registered with the Indiana Horse Racing Commission, returning to foal in Indiana in 2021, and registering that foal with the IHRC.

Kentucky

In September 2020, the Kentucky State Supreme Court ruled that most historical horse racing conducted in the state was unconstitutional, threatening hundreds of millions of dollars that support the state’s Thoroughbred industry. KEEP (the Kentucky Equine Education Foundation) declared that “HHR is a vital part of Kentucky’s economy, employing thousands of people, encouraging investment in our local communities and keeping our racing circuit competitive with other states.” At year’s end, equine lobbyists were working on presenting legislation to protect HHR by changing the definition of pari-mutuel wagering to include historical horse racing. Racinos in KY had set up Video Lottery Terminals that are played like slot machines but use previously run races to determine winning combinations for wagerers. It is unclear as of this writing whether a legislative solution will be permissible or the state will have to amend its constitution in order to make HHR legal.

Maryland

Maryland was one of four states to report to the Jockey Club that it experienced an increase in mares bred in 2020. Maryland’s 29 stallions saw a 3.5% increase in mares covered, with 806 mares visiting the state’s 61

breeding sheds during the year. Maryland now offers 30% awards on purse money for first- through third-place finishes, while New York offers 15% awards on second- and third-place finishes for the off spring of NY stallions.

Ontario

Ontario provides breeders’ incentives through the Thoroughbred Improvement program, which offers incentives to recruit in-foal mares to the Canadian province.

From the Ontario Racing website: The Thoroughbred MPP (Mare Purchase Program) is eligible to purchasers, who are Ontario residents, of an in-foal broodmare at the following 2020-21 recognized public auctions: an in- foal of broodmare through the following 2020-21 sales: Wanamaker’s Online Thoroughbred Auction (check www.wanamakers.com for dates), Fasig-Tipton November Breeding Stock Sale (November 8, 2020), Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale (November 9-18, 2020), Fasig-Tipton Midlantic December Mixed Sale (December 7-8, 2020), Keeneland January Horses of All Ages Sale (January 11-14, 2021), OBS Winter Mixed Sale (January 26-27, 2021) and Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Winter Mixed Sale (February 8-9, 2021).

Eligible applicants will receive 50 percent of the purchase price, up to a maximum of $15,000 (CDN), through the Thoroughbred Horse Improvement Program (TIP) for each mare purchased.

“The Mare Purchase Program, established in October 2019, provides comprehensive, word-class incentives and bonuses to both new and established Thoroughbred breeders, to further investment in breeding racehorses in Ontario,” said John Hayes, Independent Chair, and Ontario Racing. “The Board of Directors of Ontario Racing and its Thoroughbred Horse Improvement Program committee remain dedicated to supporting a strong TIP program, a program that is integral to the long-term prosperity of the province’s horse racing industry.”

An added incentive of $2,500 for every mare that is bred back to a registered Ontario sire in the 2021 breeding season is also available. The MPP is capped at a maximum distribution of $50,000 (CDN) for any one individual or partnership. In order to be considered eligible, there is a minimum purchase price of $15,000 (USD) on any in-foal mare.

According to Ontarioracing.com, “a total of 123 in-foal broodmares have been added to the province’s broodmare band, with 76 pledged back to a registered Ontario sire” as of February 4, 2020.

Pennsylvania

The Pennsylvania breeding program is funded by one percent of handle. The state’s breeding program pays 40% awards to PA-sired PA-breds for first- through third-place finishes. This mimics the New York program, which offers double awards to NY-sired award earners. In June, the Pennsylvania Horse Breeders Association announced that the pandemic would not affect award rates.

Promotion & Advertising Report

In a normal year, the Fund’s promotional budget encompasses advertising in a broad range of equine-centric media that includes radio, TV/cable, print and online social media. Of course, 2020 was anything but normal, and the Fund took unusual steps to trim spending after the March shutdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in extreme reductions in our revenue streams.

First and foremost, in order to trim spending, the Fund’s field inspectors were furloughed for two months and all employees were furloughed for two days per month from June through the end of the year.

NYRA applied $50,000 of the Fund’s spend on television to 2021 as the interruption of racing naturally pulled the plug on racing broadcasts. Ads were only placed online or in print when driven by events such as Tiz the Law’s Belmont and Travers wins.

The Fund did not advertise on the well-regarded Horse Racing Radio Network.

Because statutes only allow the Fund to spend 6% of its revenue on promotion, there was only approximately $10,000 left in the promo budget at the end of the year to allocate to organizations that assisted with retiring, retraining and rehoming ex-racehorses.

Through promotional spends with facilities approved by the TAA (Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance) here in New York State, the Fund not only helps ex-racehorses, it reaches individuals within each organization’s circle of influence. Significantly, we demonstrate that the New York Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund recognizes that helping off-track Thoroughbreds is integral to the preservation and broadening of the sport.

According to TAA Past-President John Phillips, “Those who participate in this sport at any level… must realize the public demands a good-faith effort to address post-race retraining, retirement or humane management as necessary for those horses left out of the current reintegration system or markets. We heed this concern, the sport grows; we ignore it, we become a relic.”

Aftercare Spending in 2020

In 2020, the Fund spent more than $11,000 with entities in New York that provided aftercare and re-training to off-track Thoroughbreds, educated the public about the importance of showing respect to Thoroughbreds throughout their lives, and/or encouraged young people to become interested in Thoroughbreds. In addition to the TAA-approved facilities specified below, the Fund sponsored educational programs conducted by Cornell Cooperative Extension and the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame.

The following are some of the TAA-approved facilities that received support from the Fund:

 ACTT Naturally / Long Shadows Charitable Foundation  Akindale Thoroughbred Rescue  Equine Advocates  Finger Lakes Thoroughbred Adoption Program  Lucky Orphans Sanctuary  Old Friends at Cabin Creek 66

 ReRun Thoroughbred Adoption  New Vocations Racehorse Adoption/North Country Horses  Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation

The Fund’s largest annual spend is a “sole source” contract with the Saratoga Springs-based trade and membership group New York Thoroughbred Breeders, Inc., which represents breeders in New York State. The group agreed to take a significant reduction in compensation, as all of its membership events and seminars had to be cancelled in 2020 due to the pandemic.

NYTB also hosts a website (NYTBreeders.org) that compliments the Fund’s website (NYBreds.com). The NYTB promotional write-up can be found on pages 84-86 of this report.

The Fund recognizes that, in addition to mailing out award checks, it has a responsibility to keep those who have already invested in Thoroughbreds informed about equine health issues and any changes in rules affecting NY-breds. Therefore, we communicate as directly as possible by posting important information on our website and on the Fund’s official Facebook page (NYBreds), as well as by sending out e-mail blasts and including information in the award letters that accompany award checks.

Naturally, we also handle phone calls and e-mails on a daily basis, and the Executive Director will meet directly with breeders at stallion shows and educational events when in-person events are allowed again.

Advertising Platforms in 2020

 Thoroughbred Daily News online  Blood-Horse magazine  Daily Racing Form, print and online  NYRA/Saratoga & Belmont Live broadcasts  Saratoga Special Newspaper

Decisions on where to make promotional spends of up to $25,000 per year are made in concert with the Fund Board’s Ad Hoc Committee on Promotion, consisting of the following Fund Board members:

• William B. Wilmot, DVM, Committee Chair • Breeder member Philip Birsh • Breeder member Joseph McMahon • NYTB, Inc. Executive Director Jeff Cannizzo (through mid-December of 2020)

It should be noted that all promotional spends above $25,000 are approved by the full Board of Directors. Those expenditures in 2020 were limited to NYRA TV’s Saratoga and Belmont “Live” broadcasts.

TV

The Fund ran television ads on NYRA TV and FoxSports that were shot, written and produced by the Fund, or shot and written by the Fund but voiced and edited by NYRA.

Print & Online Ads

Promoting the purchase of NY-breds and NY stallion seasons, as well as recruiting boarders for New York farms, is unlike any other kind of advertising. People buy toothpaste and cars year-round, but stakeholders in the Thoroughbred industry change their focus depending on the time of year. They make decisions on which stallions to breed to late in the year or within the first few months of the next year. Potential buyers of NY-breds may want to purchase two-year-olds that are close to starting, and therefore focus on spring juvenile sales. Other buyers prefer shopping the yearling sales each summer and fall in hopes of paying a lower price for a youngster that could develop into a star at a two-year-old-in training sale or become a standout on the racetrack.

The following are examples of the variety of ads produced by the Fund during 2020.

NYTB PROMOTIONAL REPORT 2020

New York Stallion Register

NYTB published the 2020 New York Stallion Register. The New York Stallion Register print edition utilized the same page layout and format as is used in The Blood-Horse Stallion Register. The industry’s top breeders over the years have praised the concise format and statistical information displayed. An online directory included the same key data as the print but will be updated daily with information from The Jockey Club databases. The same downloadable reports, cumulative list of top performers and online search comparisons of statistics found on StallionRegister.com will also be available for participants on the NYTB website.

The New York Stallion Register was distributed to every association member and subscriber in New York and various surrounding states ensuring that the New York stallions receive maximum exposure.

New York turf writers, handicappers and others have voted for the winners of each division, and all winners and their connections were honored in a virtual edition of the NYTB’s Annual Awards due to the restrictions and constrains on operating during the pandemic.

The NYTB’s Annual Awards is always our breeder’s marquee event. Press coverage and social media lauded the efforts of NYTB in being able to pull off the first virtual award event in horse racing during the pandemic. A custom NYTBAwards.com website was created displaying the best racetrack performandes from 2019 by New York-breds before the announcement of the winners in each division was unveiled on the website. The New York breeding and racing community provided positive feedback and award winners were mailed trophies as given in customary award banquet years.

With no live racing in New York from March 15 through June 1 due to COVID-19 pandemic, NYTB was unable to hold its traditional on-track promotional functions including Big Apple Showcase Day in May and Empire Showcase Day in October. With the return of live racing at racetracks still closed to spectators, the NYTB focused our promotional efforts in increasing awareness of the New York-bred program and awards in the industry’s top publications included but not limited to the Thoroughbred Daily News and Bloodhorse magazine.
