What is the Oklahoma Breeding and Development Fund Special Account?: The OBDFSA is an incentive fund which increases income for Oklahoma horse racing and breeding enterprises. Purse supplements, stallion and broodmare awards are paid to owners and breeders of qualifying accredited Oklahoma-Bred horses through a system of restricted and open company races at Oklahoma racetracks. The OBDFSA is funded by unclaimed tickets, breakage and a percentage of the exotic handle. Payouts are based on the handle at each track and vary slightly according to the track and the racing breed. The Program was established by the Legislature in 1983 and, as is required by law, administered by the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission.
What is an accredited Oklahoma-Bred horse?: An accredited Oklahoma-Bred horse is one that is foaled in Oklahoma, is out of a permanently domiciled, accredited Oklahoma-Bred broodmare and is sired by an accredited Oklahoma-Bred stallion. Additionally, in alternating years, for Quarter Horses, Paints, and Appaloosas, foals by non-accredited stallions may be registered as accredited Oklahoma-Bred, providing all other requirements are met (refer to Chapter 75,Oklahoma-Bred Rules). Beginning with foals of 2001, a Thoroughbred foal out of an accredited Oklahoma-Bred Thoroughbred broodmare may be registered as accredited Oklahoma-Bred, regardless of standing location and accreditation status of the stallion, providing all other requirements are met. More than 70,168 horses have been registered as accredited Oklahoma-Bred racing stock, broodmares, and stallions through December 31, 2005. Please refer to Chapter 75, Oklahoma-Bred Program, in the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission Rules of Racing or contact the OHRC home office at (405) 943-6472.
What opportunities are there to earn Oklahoma-Bred money?: Each Commission-licensed racetrack in Oklahoma is required to offer as race conditions no less than two Oklahoma-Bred restricted races per day. In addition, tracks offer Oklahoma-Bred money in open company races on an “if eligible” basis when funds allow, and each track offers at least two stakes races restricted to accredited Oklahoma-Bred horses. Some open stakes races offer Oklahoma-Bred purse supplements if eligible. Each time an accredited Oklahoma-Bred earns a purse supplement, the breeder and stallion owner earn Oklahoma-Bred awards.

💥Debbie Schauf Spirit Award Recipient💥
Coralee Farley

The Debbie Schauf Spirit Award recognizes an individual whose generosity, dedication and care for others reflect the legacy of Debbie Schauf. Debbie was known as the person anyone in racing could call, no matter the time or the challenge. This award honors those who carry that same spirit forward.

This year’s recipient, Coralee Farley, has spent her life serving Quarter Horse racing and the people in it. Her early years included work at Eureka Downs, and she continued to build a career that took her through multiple jurisdictions. She later served as a racing official in Texas, spent several years on the AQHA Racing Committee and eventually came to Oklahoma, where she worked at Will Rogers Downs and now Expo Square in Tulsa.

Coralee has long been a steady presence in chaplaincy programs at both Fair Meadows and Will Rogers Downs. She is often the one organizing care bags with essential items, planning cookouts or making sure someone on the backside has what they need. Even during significant health challenges in recent years, she remained connected to the people of the racetrack and continued to find ways to help others.

Her kindness, strength and quiet dedication make her a deserving recipient of the Debbie Schauf Spirit Award.

The Hall of Fame inductions will take place on February 28, 2026, at the Grand Casino Resort in Shawnee, Oklahoma.
