The Cal-Bred Incentives Awards Program is provided by state law to promote the horse racing industry in California. Owners, breeders and sire owners of Cal-Bred horses share a percentage of the state-designated money each year. ARAC was recently successful in introducing legislation with the State to bring Arabian Cal-Bred awards in line with those paid out to other racing breeds.
The cash awards are generated by monies wagered on the races. Each time a Registered Cal-Bred Arabian finishes first or second in a race in California, the Owner, Breeder and Sire owner earn money. The fund is disbursed on a yearly basis as follows:
|
 |
Breeder: 55%
The person/persons listed as breeder of record by the Arabian Horse Registry of America.
Owners: 20%
The licensed person/persons (Owner or lessee) listed in the official racing program at time of the race. |
Sire Awards: 15%
The stallion owner on December 31 of each racing year as recorded by the Arabian Horse Registry of America.
Promotion: 10%

Any purebred Arabian horse registered with the Arabian Horse Registry of America meeting the following criteria:
A.) Foaled in California after being conceived in California by a stallion standing in California.
B.) A purebred Arabian foal conceived outside of California in 1986 or after but is dropped by the mare in California. Mare must remain in California to be bred to an Arabian stallion standing in California. The foal resulting from this rebreeding must be dropped in the State of California to be Cal-Bred eligible. This change was made by the Board at their November 2006 meeting. If said mare cannot be bred for two (2) successive breeding seasons, but remains in California during that period of time, her foal shall be considered to be Cal-Bred eligible.
