BC Foal Nomination Deadline Approaching

[Wandering Eyes]

Edited Press Release

Officials at Breeders' Cup Limited remind horsepeople that the deadline to nominate foals born in 2025 to the Breeders' Cup program at a one-time fee of $400 is Friday, Aug. 1, at 11:59 p.m. ET. To ensure that the 'Breeders' Cup Nominated' designation appears on catalog pages for upcoming fall and winter breeding stock sales, foals must be nominated by this deadline.

The one-time $400 weanling nomination entitles each foal with racing eligibility to the Breeders' Cup World Championships and the Breeders' Cup racing programs for its lifetime. All foals sired by a fully nominated North American Breeders' Cup stallion are eligible for nomination to the Breeders' Cup program in their year of birth at the weanling rate.

If sales foals are not nominated by the early deadline, foal nominations may still be made in the foal's year of birth with a one-time payment of a $400 nomination fee if made on or before Oct. 15, 2025. That is the final deadline for a $400 lifetime eligibility nomination payment.

Thoroughbred racing's most significant international festival for more than 42 years, Breeders' Cup Limited has allocated purses and awards of more than $1 billion to owners, foal nominators, and stallion nominators through its programs, including the annual Breeders' Cup World Championships showcasing the best Thoroughbreds, owners, trainers, and jockeys to a global audience.

Breeders' Cup foal nominators will earn $10,000 for every victory in the worldwide 'Breeders' Cup Challenge Series: Win and You're In', and every horse that starts in a Breeders' Cup World Championship race will earn a nominator award. The individual nominating the foal receives these nominator awards even though the horse may change hands throughout its racing career.
