Checks have been mailed to participating owners, nominators and subscribers for their horses’ 2021 Breeders’ Trust payout earnings—payouts were issued and mailed March 18, with a per-point value of $8.36. That’s the highest per-point value since 2013, with the exception of the 2020 anomaly due to COVID cancellations. More than $394,000 in total payouts were realized in 2021.
APHA’s Breeders’ Trust continues to generate payouts to all who play a factor in the life of a foal: the stallion subscriber, breeder and owner.
