Thanks for input breno. I think ther are two factors to this - one being the dollars side, the other the definition side. I think the definition is hard to establish, but we are not talking about buying a mare with a foal already at foot - I have no problem with that scenario.
Further, the stallion nominator still gets his 5% of vicbred proceeds so it seems unfair that foal nominator doesn't.
i was told nsw will be changing the rules so that it becomes the foal notifier who receives the bonus'
so i don't see the point of this? the 'breeder' gets a trophy from a breeders association??? there is no way 'planning' a mating entitles someone anything, most horses are booked into 2/3/4 stallions and its a flip of the coin which they go to.. if its 'planning' then anyone who employs third party planning should be handing over all trophies and bonuses to the people who wrote the algorithm or advised them
Someone can consult and pay a third party for breeding advice, recieving advice doesn't change who the breeder is. And whether a mare is booked to 1 stallion or 4, most people have some sort of method to their madness, be it pedigree, price, recommendation, siblings, fertility - I have yet to meet someone who puts a bind fold on and tabs a few random stallions in a stallion guide Buster.Originally Posted by thesushitrain
don't get me started on stallion nominator payments
horses that make the final of breeders challenge get absolutely nothing if they finish outside the top 5, what a joke
