British EBF publishes annual industry document

The British EBF published its annual industry document on Tuesday, covering its activities for the 2024 Flat and 2024-2025 National Hunt seasons.

Maintaining record contributions to racing’s prize-money at £2 million for the third consecutive year, the British EBF has been a leading supporter of the high-value development novice and maiden races and taken on sponsorship of the National Hunt junior hurdle programme.

The document details how funds are allocated following the generous contributions made by British stallion studs from their covering income, a system that has played a vital role in nurturing domestic prizemoney for over 40 years.

Two races are highlighted as examples of racecourses and the British EBF working together to provide successful development opportunities for horses destined for Group contests. 

The British Stallion Studs EBF Alice Keppel Fillies’ Conditions Stakes, run on the second day of the Qatar Goodwood festival, has produced nine individual stakes winners since its inception in 2019, including Group 1 scorer The Platinum Queen. 

Hamilton Park’s British Stallion Studs EBF Glasgow Stakes, the course’s only Listed race, has produced graduates including 2024 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes winner Kalpana.
