Wait 5 sec.

Coolmore's Tiz the Law tops the list of the 2025 Report of Mares Bred statistics released Thursday by the Jockey Club. Ahead of 2026, The Jockey Club is projecting a North American registered Thoroughbred foal crop of 17,000 which represents 300 fewer foals than the 2025 foal crop estimate of 17,300.Tiz the Law had the highest number of mares bred with 274 followed by Arabian Knight (273), Practical Joke (263), Justify (244), Charge It (235), Domestic Product (224), Gun Runner (218), Not This Time (214), Vekoma (211), and National Treasure (202).The foal crop projection is computed by using Reports of Mares Bred (RMBs) received to date for the 2025 breeding season. RMBs are to be filed by August 1 of each breeding season.This year, The Jockey Club has published preliminary statistics regarding mares reported bred by state/province through the current date for 2024, 2023, and 2022. These reports are updated daily and can be found here.For the RMBs received through September 30, 2025, The Jockey Club reports that 740 stallions covered 24,681 mares in North America during 2025. There were 10 stallions who covered more than 200 mares in 2025, the same number as last year and down from the high of 16 in 2022. Those stallions served 2,358 mares, slightly up from 2024 but also down from 2022's peak of 3,463.The Jockey Club estimates an additional 2,000 to 3,000 mares will be reported as bred during the 2025 breeding season.Of the RMB reports received, 201 mares were part of the Mare Incentive Program, which waives registration fees for certain 2026 foals of mares that meet criteria defined by The Jockey Club. This initiative was announced in December 2024 to stimulate interest in mares that appear to have left production. The report of Mare Incentive Program mares is available to anyone with an Interactive Registration account and is filterable by 12 data elements, including sire, dam sire, age, money earned, and class of race achieved.This story will be updated.The post Tiz The Law Tops 2025 Report Of Mares Bred; 2026 Foal Crop Projected To Decline appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
