The HBPA of Alberta has announced an Alberta-Bred 2- and 3-year-old maiden special weight program for the 2023 race season at Century Mile Racetrack.
The HBPA, in agreement with Century Mile's race manager, will write Alberta-bred maiden special weight races for 3-year-old colts and geldings, and 3-year-old fillies, once a month with a purse of $35,000 for May, June, and July. For August, September, and October, there will be one per month of 3-year-old Alberta-bred maiden special weight races.
There will also be a 2-year-old Alberta-bred maiden program combining colts and fillies, once a month with a purse of $35,000 from July through October.
Races must contain a minimum of 6 entries before being considered.
The HBPA of Alberta reserves the right to combine, cancel, or change scheduling of these races
The HBPA of Alberta would also like to announce an Alberta-sired program for the 2023 race season. For any Alberta-sired 2-year-old, they will receive a one-time bonus of $5,000 when they break their maiden at any level other than stakes and the $35,000 Alberta-bred races at Century tracks in 2023.
In addition to these, the HBPA is continuing with the 3-year-old colts and geldings and 3 year-old fillies stakes races for Alberta-sired offspring. Each stakes race will be worth $50,000.
Races must contain a minimum of 6 entries.
The HBPA may amend programs from time to time.
