IMBA Breeder of the Year Award

IMBA Breeder of the Year is an award to annually recognize a Morab breeder for their commitment to the Morab breed. This award recognizes the Morab breeder for a commitment to breeding quality Morabs.

The Award is based on points earned from new foals and horses shown that are Three-years old and under. A breeder with a few horses that places high at shows, has as much of a chance of winning as a breeder with many horses that place low at shows. A small breeder who is breeding their stallion can also do well without having produced many foals or going to a show.

NOMINATION:
Breeders can nominate themselves or nominate others for this award. The deadline for nomination and form submission is December 31st.

MORAB FOAL POINTS:
For each IMR registerable person/farm/partnership owned foal born during the year. Points are awarded to the appropriate owners of the Foal, Sire and Dam. The Sire and Dam do not need to be Morabs for the points to count, but the foal does have to meet the International Morab Registry (IMR) requirements. So even an Arabian stallion owner may win the Morab Breeder of the Year award.

Example: Mr. Smith has a Morab Foal sired by Mr. Jones Arabian stallion and out of Mrs. Doe's Morgan Mare.
Mr. Smith receives 10 points and Mr. Jones receives 10 points and Mrs. Doe receives 10 points.
