Every thoroughbred has a story and traceability is how we make sure that story doesn't get lost along the way. From registration with the General Stud Book to covering certificates, ownership changes and career moves, each stage is a touchpoint.
Miss one, and a gap opens up in the record of where that horse is and who's responsible for it.
The Thoroughbred Breeders' Association (TBA) set out to tackle these data gaps as closing them is a shared responsibility, from the breeder who registers the foal to the owner who takes it on years later.
To help make sense of it all, the TBA has launched a new animatied resource and it's free to view.

The Thoroughbred Breeders' Association (TBA) has released an updated version of the Bloodstock Tax Guide (May 2024) which is exclusive to TBA Membership.

This helpful document seeks to offer an overview of tax-related challenges that affect breeders, but does not replace specialist advice on particular issues.

The administration side of breeding bloodstock is critical to the health and welfare of horses, and in support of the TBA's Stud Administration Course, Weatherbys' Simon Cooper and Sam Hyman from the General Stud Book talk to TB-Ed about all things stud administration.
