Applications for The Jockey Club Thoroughbred Incentive Program’s (TIP) two annual awards, the Thoroughbred of the Year Award and the Young Rider of the Year Award, are now available.

The TIP Thoroughbred of the Year Award recognizes a Thoroughbred that has excelled in a non-competitive career, such as equine-assisted therapy or police work. The award includes a $5,000 grant to the nonprofit organization associated with the horse or, if no organization is associated with the horse, to a horse-related charity chosen by The Jockey Club.

The TIP Young Rider of the Year Award recognizes young riders, 18 or under as of Jan. 1, 2016, who own or lease a Thoroughbred for use in 4-H, Pony Club, or other activities. The winner(s) will be determined through an essay contest with a total award of $5,000 that can be applied to the college of their choice or to their participation in an event that furthers their involvement with horses.

Thoroughbreds registered with The Jockey Club are eligible for participation in both awards. Horse owners interested in participating in TIP can find more information regarding eligibility and assistance with identification of Thoroughbreds at tjctip.com
