Pearl Series early bird entries set to close

Those wanting to make the most of the early bird entry fee for the 2022 NZB Insurance Pearl Series will need to get their nominations of 2020 born fillies in by next Tuesday.

After Tuesday, 31 May the nomination fee will rise from $1,150 (including GST) to $1,725 (including GST.

Administered by the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders' Association, the NZB Insurance Pearl Series is a Bonus scheme for fillies and mares offering bonuses for owners, trainers and nominators of almost $2.4 million and prizemoney of nearly $2.5 million on up to 200 individual races for fillies and mares over four seasons' racing.

From August 2022 bonuses will be paid out to fillies and mares that finish first, second or third in a Pearl eligible race (previously only paid to winners) and the series will be extended to cover previously registered mares up to and including their five-year-old season of racing.

A single bonus level will be offered for all Pearl races with the winning owner receiving $10,000 and the trainer and the nominator each receiving $500. In addition, the owner of the second horse will receive $2,000 and the owner of the third horse $1,000.
