Toronto, ON — The Ontario Sires Stakes Administration would like to remind everyone that the deadline to register a stallion for the OSS program for the 2010 breeding season without incurring a late fee is Friday, Jan. 15.

Payments made by mail must show a postmark of Jan. 15 or earlier. Payments can also be made in person at the Ontario Racing Commission office (10 Carlson Court, Suite 400, Toronto, ON) during regular business hours.

Stallions not registered by the deadline can still be registered for the 2010 season. However, they must be registered before they breed their first mare of the season and the cost of registering the stallion will be higher.

If you did not receive a registration form in the mail, it can be downloaded from the OSS Web site at www.ontariosiresstakes.com.

All checks should be made payable and mailed (registered mail or courier is recommended to ensure that it is postmarked by Jan. 15) to: Ontario Sires Stakes, 10 Carlson Court, Suite 400, Toronto, ON M9W 6L2.
