On Thursday, August 20, Blue Chip Farms announced the details of its ‘$100,000 Breeders Crown Challenge,’ a six-figure incentive to the winners of the already-lucrative 2016 Breeders Crown two-year-old races.
Via release, officials with Blue Chip have stated that if prospective buyers purchase a Blue Chip-bred and owned yearling in one of the 2015 yearling sales, and it goes on to win one of the four 2016 Breeders Crown two-year-old races at the Meadowlands Racetrack, the owners of the horse will receive a $100,000 Blue Chip yearling credit.

Blue Chip $100,000 Breeders Crown Challenge
Win $100,000 Blue Chip Yearling Credit if you win the 2016 2YO Breeders Crown
As the industry continues to search for ways to address the foal crop crisis, Blue Chip Farms has decided to do their part to further increase the opportunity for yearling buyers by offering a $100,000 incentive to winners of the already enhanced $600K 2016 Breeders Crown two year-old races.
The Blue Chip Breeders Crown $100K Challenge is as beautiful as it is simple. Buy a Blue Chip bred and owned yearling in one of the 2015 yearling sales; win one of the four 2YO 2016 Breeders Crown races at the Meadowlands and get a $100,000 Blue Chip Yearling Credit.
“I fully believe that every one of the fifty plus yearlings we are bringing to this year’s three sales has every chance to win another two year-old Breeders Crown for Blue Chip Bred,” said Blue Chip Farms Principal Tom Grossman. “Nothing would make me happier than to give a $100,000 yearling credit to the owners that take one of our yearlings to the Breeders Crown winner’s circle in 2016 and see that money reinvested into the yearling market.”
