STAR MAKER SERIES – Sponsored by The Standardbred Horse Sales Co
Following the success of the new Star Maker Series in 2018, the series is planned to return for the 2019 season.
The target region remains the lower end of the handicap; horses that have not won much money at 2YO or 3YO. The series will consist of heats and a Final, which promoters have been invited to tender for. Tenders are due back at the BHRC on 29th March 2019.
The series will consist of a minimum of 8 heats and a maximum of 10 heats, with a Final to be staged in August – dates will be confirmed once Promoter tenders are received and races allocated.

All heats are Ballot for Position
Where heats are oversubcribed, horse with least runs in the series will be given priority. Entries will be balloted out if necessary to all horses to enter in alternative races

In the event of a tie on points and/or reserve spots becoming available, the issue will be resolved by ballot
