The Pennsylvania Horse Breeders Association Jsaid it continues to work on restoring payments for breeder and stallion awards after corrective language failed to win approval before the state General Assembly adjourned. At issue is language in an omnibus horseracing reform bill signed into law by Gov. Tom Wolf in late February. The awards percentages that have been paid for years remain in place, but a mistake made when the breeding fund provisions were included in the bill led the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, which oversees racing regulation, to suspend breeder and stallion awards.
