Iowa Code r. 21-62.16 - Iowa-foaled horse status

Iowa-foaled horse status can be achieved the following two ways:

1. All thoroughbred horses foaled in Iowa which are registered by the Jockey Club as Iowa foaled shall be considered to be Iowa foaled.

2. A foal from a mare meeting the eligibility requirements will be eligible to become an Iowa-foaled horse.

(1) Both Iowa-foaled categories will require that an application to be an Iowa-foaled thoroughbred horse be filed with the department. The application must be filed on a Form I-6 provided by the department.

(2) The form shall be completed by the owner(s) of the thoroughbred foal or horse or by the owner's authorized representative. This registration will cover the thoroughbred foal or horse its entire productive life.

(3) The owner(s) shall complete an application for an Iowa-foaled Registration, showing the name of the brood mare, the name of the sire, date of foaling, color, as well as the sex and markings of the foal or horse.

(4) To complete the official registration of an Iowa-foaled horse, the owner(s) must forward the Jockey Club Certificate by registered mail to the department. If the horse has met all requirements for registration, the department shall affix its official seal on the face of the Jockey Club Certificate, which shall include the department's registration number for the horse, and return the certificate within ten working days from the date of receipt. In the event the horse has met all requirements for registration but the department fails to affix its official seal on the face of the Jockey Club Certificate after proper presentation, the list of Iowa-foaled horses prepared by the department shall serve as official notification of Iowa-foaled status until the department's official seal is affixed. If the Jockey Club Certificate is lost or destroyed, a duplicate Jockey Club Certificate for that horse must be forwarded to the department and must be recertified by the department.

(5) and (6) Rescinded IAB 11/14/90, effective 12/19/90.

(7) An investigator, appointed by the secretary, shall have access to the premises on which qualified mares, Iowa registered stallions and Iowa-bred foals or horses are kept.

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 99D.22.
