About
Racing NSW BOBS (Breeder Owner Bonus Scheme) rewards owners who invest in NSW bloodstock.
BOBS bonuses are paid out on racetracks all around NSW, adding a payment of up to $20,000 for each win as a two-year-old and three-year-old. Last season, over $11.5 million was paid out in cash bonuses and Double-Up vouchers, bringing the total since the scheme’s inception to over $185 million.
To be eligible for BOBS, a horse must be sired by a BOBS eligible stallion and nominated for the scheme.
Owners can also opt to nominate for BOBS Extra which extends BOBS bonus payments to 4YO racehorses over a staying distance of 1800m and beyond. Late nominations are not accepted for BOBS Extra.
BOBS & BOBS Extra Racehorse Nominations for 2024 will close on 1st September 2024 for horses foaled in 2022 that turn two on 1st August 2024.
Double-Ups
A winning owner can choose to take the winning cash bonus, or elect to take a Double-Up Voucher and earn twice the value by reinvesting the money in a BOBS eligible yearling or unraced BOBS eligible 2YO sold at public auction Sales.
BOBS Double-Up Vouchers can be used to pay for an entire horse or a share in a syndicated BOBS horse purchased through an Australasian sale ring.
The BOBS Double-Up Voucher can be used towards the purchase price as long as the horse is a BOBS-eligible YEARLING or at a Ready To Run Sale if the horse is BOBS-eligible, unraced and was not purchased originally through the use of a Double-Up voucher.
Double-Up vouchers can also be used to pay for service fees to participating NSW based stallions.
