Why Breed in PA

The numbers make it clear — Pennsylvania Pays! Over the last 10 years, the PHBA Breeding Fund distributed an average of $28.5 million each year in Awards, “Owner Bonuses,” and Restricted Race Purses, including $12 million in Breeder and Stallion Awards, $5.4 million in “Owner Bonuses” at Parx, Penn National and Presque Isle Downs (owner bonus of up to 40% of the purse earned on overnight races – paid with the purse, and $3.75 million in purses for Pennsylvania-Bred Stakes representing 29 races).

In addition, the Breeding Fund and the Pennsylvania Horsemen (HBPA and PTHA) paid $8.6 million in purses for the Pennsylvania-Bred restricted races.
