The Jockey Club Thoroughbred Incentive Program

FAQ's

Is my Thoroughbred eligible for the Thoroughbred Incentive Program (T.I.P.)?

For purposes of eligibility for all T.I.P. classes and awards, a "Thoroughbred" is defined as any horse that has been registered with The Jockey Club (TJC) or a foreign Thoroughbred stud book recognized by TJC. There is no charge for a T.I.P. Number.

What do I need to provide to a horse show to prove that my horse is eligible for T.I.P.?

We have introduced a T.I.P. Number to make proof of eligibility for T.I.P. classes and awards easier for owners, riders and horse shows.
In order to participate in a T.I.P. class or be eligible for a T.I.P. award, owners and riders must obtain a T.I.P. Number. The T.I.P. Number card should be provided to participating horse shows as proof of eligibility. To obtain a T.I.P. Number, please go to My Account. There is no charge for a T.I.P. Number.

I forgot my T.I.P. Number, user ID and/or password, how do I find it?

How do I change or edit a horse's show name, rider or owner name on a T.I.P. card? How do I reprint a T.I.P. card?

You can look up your number and reprint a T.I.P. Number card anytime by logging into your account at My Account.

If you need to edit the spelling of an owner or rider name, please email tjctip@jockeyclub.com. Include the horse's T.I.P. Number, registered name, show name, owner name and corrected spelling.

If you need to change ownership for a T.I.P. Number under the same T.I.P. account, please send proof of transfer to tjctip@jockeyclub.com or have the horse's owner as listed on the current T.I.P. card email tjctip@jockeyclub.com to request the change. Include the horse's T.I.P. Number, registered name, show name, and new owner name.

If you are the new owner of a horse, please apply for a new T.I.P. Number.

If the owner/rider combination listed is correct but you need to move the T.I.P. Number to your T.I.P. account, please email tjctip@jockeyclub.com to request the move. Include the horse's T.I.P. Number, registered name, show name, owner name and new account name. If there is also an ownership transfer, provide proof of ownership change as noted above.

My new horse already has a T.I.P. Number, what do I do? What if I just need to add a rider?

T.I.P. Numbers are horse/owner specific, so you should get a new T.I.P. Number for the horse. To obtain a T.I.P. Number, please go to My Account.

You can add additional riders to existing T.I.P. Numbers by logging in to My Account.

There is no charge for a T.I.P. Number.

I have a Thoroughbred but do not know its registered name or I cannot read its tattoo, what can I do?

For purposes of eligibility for all T.I.P. classes and awards, a "Thoroughbred" is defined as any horse that has been registered with The Jockey Club or a foreign Thoroughbred stud book approved by The Jockey Club and the International Stud Book Committee.

If your horse is tattooed, you should research the tattoo using TJC’s FREE Tattoo Research Services. Horse owners who do not have access to a Thoroughbred's Certificate of Foal Registration and who are not able to successfully research a Thoroughbred’s tattoo may apply to The Jockey Club for assistance with identification of the horse.

There aren't any horse shows in my area or I don't compete my Thoroughbred. Can I participate in T.I.P.?

Yes! The T.I.P. Performance Awards recognize the Thoroughbred accumulating the most points at all horse shows in each of the award categories and divisions from December 1 through November 30. Horse shows do not have to offer T.I.P. awards to be included.
All results are self-reported by owners and/or riders. For more information please visit Performance Awards Information.

The Thoroughbred Recreational Riding Incentive Program (TRRIP) is designed to recognize and reward Thoroughbred owners and riders that enjoy recreational riding or driving on a regular basis. More Information Available Here!
