Dover, DE — The Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund is pleased to announce that starting with all May 15 payments we can now accept credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) as a form of payment.

All owners of 2-year-olds eligible to make the May payment were sent a notice with the May stakes payment form along with a credit card information form. Owners can mail it in with their payment form. If you don’t want to mail the credit card form you can fax it to 302.736.7947 or call 302.698.4610 and give the credit card information over the phone.

The amount due is $200. The payment makes horses eligible to race in DSBF races in 2014. The March 15, 2014 payment of $100 must have been made.

For yearling nominations the owner and or agent will have to call in the credit information. The amount due for yearlings is $40 and a copy of the yearling’s USTA registration papers must be sent with the payment. A ‘basic horse” report from Pathway is also acceptable.

By regulation, all due stakes payments must have a filled out stakes form postmarked by May 15.
