Columbus, OH — The USTA would like to inform all breeders that the 2016 foal applications will be arriving in your mailbox shortly. We expect to have all of them out in the next week, so we do appreciate your patience.

If you would like to make an application for registration prior to receiving the prepopulated form, you may do so by clicking here.

We would also like to make mention that in the past, you did receive a notice in the mail from the USTA stating that your foal had been parentage verified after your foal was DNA’d and freeze branded. They were often referred to as “DNA Letters.”

We have since made changes to both Pathway and to the Free Horse Name/Tattoo page that now indicates in real time that your foal’s DNA has been verified. You will be able to print that report for your records if needed. If the sales companies need verification, this is your option.
