Edited Press release
The Jockey Club Thoroughbred Incentive Program (T.I.P.) has announced that owners of Thoroughbreds eligible for T.I.P. Performance Awards must submit the appropriate forms by December 20, 2014.
T.I.P. Performance Awards recognize the Thoroughbreds that accumulated the most points between December 1, 2013, and November 30, 2014, at all horse shows in various award categories and divisions.
Horse shows do not have to offer T.I.P. awards to be included.
All results are self-reported by owners and/or riders and the forms must be postmarked by the December 20 deadline. Additional information, including the forms, is available here.
In addition to discipline-specific awards, awards will also be offered for the top Maryland-bred Thoroughbred (sponsored by the Maryland Horse Breeders Association), the top Ontario-bred Thoroughbred (sponsored by the Ontario Division of the Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Sales), the top New York-bred Thoroughbred (sponsored by the New York Thoroughbred Breeders Inc.) and the top Washington-bred Thoroughbred (sponsored by the Washington Thoroughbred Breeders and Owners Association).
An award will also be presented to the top Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance-Accredited Organization Adoptee (sponsored by the TAA).
Created in October 2011, T.I.P. recognizes and rewards the versatility of the Thoroughbred through sponsorship of Thoroughbred classes and high point awards at sanctioned horse shows, performance awards, and non-competition awards.
