Columbus, OH — The deadline to renew Ohio-registered Standardbred stallions for the 2021 Ohio breeding season is this upcoming Monday (Nov. 30).

In 2020, a total of 125 stallions were registered in Ohio for the breeding season, which runs from Jan. 15 through July 15. According to United States Trotting Association (USTA) statistics, 2,860 mares were bred in Ohio in 2020, the most of any state in America.

Renewal forms can be downloaded from the Ohio State Racing Commission website under the Ohio Standardbred Development Fund (OSDF) tab. The website also contains downloadable forms for new stallions.

The renewal form must be postmarked by Nov. 30 and include a check or money order for $25. Forms postmarked after that day will be returned and the stallion must be registered as a new stallion with a $100 fee and a notary seal.
