Breeder of the Month

The monthly Breeders’ Awards, to recognise the achievements of TBA members, are split into three categories – Flat, Small Breeder Special Merit and National Hunt (during the season).

The Breeder will receive a cheque for £100 and a certificate from the TBA. For 2011 the Breeder of the Month Award is sponsored by Blue Chip and the lucky winner will receive six sacks of Blue Chip Original feed balancer and some Blue Chip clothing.
