Important information for interstate broodmare owners

Send your pregnant mare (in foal to a non Victorian stallion) to a Bombora Stud stallion this season and your expectant foal (by interstate stallion) is eligible for Super VOBIS and in turn VOBIS Gold under Category B "Breedback" Super VOBIS qualified yearlings can now participate in the $18m VOBIS Gold scheme and as such offer higher returns to breeders as they are more sought after in the sale ring and offer bigger returns on the racetrack.
