How do I know if my foal is QBRED eligible?

BREED A QBRED ELIGIBLE FOAL

A horse is eligible for the QBRED Incentive Scheme should it meet the eligibility criteria listed below and all other terms and conditions of the QBRED Incentive Scheme (‘QBRED Horse’). 

  • ELIGIBILITY A – Queensland Based Mare

The progeny of a mare inseminated in Queensland with the semen of a registered Standardbred stallion (whether or not that stallion was registered as standing in Queensland at the time of insemination) and which is born and notified in Queensland;

  • ELIGIBILITY B – Queensland Sired

The progeny of a mare inseminated with the semen of a Standardbred stallion where that stallion was, at the time of insemination, registered with the Queensland Racing and Integrity Commission (QRIC) and located in Queensland;

  • ELIGIBILITY C – Transitional QBRED

The progeny of a mare inseminated outside of Queensland that produces a foal which is born in Queensland. No other progeny of the mare is allowed to have participated in QBRED (or be a current QBRED horse) and at least 50% of the progeny must be owned by residents of Queensland (on the day of foaling);

  • ELIGIBILITY D – Additional Trotter

The progeny of a mare inseminated with the semen of a Standardbred stallion where the stallion was, at the time of insemination, registered with the QRIC and listed in the Standardbred Stallion Index as a Trotter (‘TR’ notation). The foal must be born in Australia. With trotting stallions now physically standing in Qld this eligibility type is being phased out. Progeny of mares inseminated during the 2022/23 Breeding Season will be eligible for QBRED under this eligibility type, but not from 2023/24 onwards.

NoteFor Eligibility B horses and Eligibility D horses that were foaled outside of Queensland, and all Eligibility C horses a QBRED Request Form must be submitted to and accepted by Racing Queensland prior to the horse becoming eligible for QBRED.
