BRIF

BRIF (Barrel Racing & Breakaway Incentive Fund), founded in 2010 by Double B Productions, LLC, was originally designed to add to our HFBI (Hawki Futurity Breeder's Incentive, founded in 2001) as a way to add bonus money to horses beyond their futurity year. In 2023, we added the breakaway incentive to contribute incentive money for BRIF horses competing at the Bonus Race World Finals open 3D breakaway. All incentives are designed to give owners a chance to compete for extra bonus money in barrel racing and breakaway roping for the life of the horse.

Who is eligible for BRIF money? Any horse that has been paid into BRIF. Once a progeny pays into the BRIF, they're eligible to run for BRIF bonuses for life (one-time enrollment fee for progeny).

To be eligible for enrollment, progeny must be sired by a currently enrolled stallion. If a stallion drops out of BRIF, the progeny are no longer eligible for enrollment. 10% of the purse goes to the stallion owner (1st place in each division only, in barrel race), and the stallion must be currently enrolled to receive payment. If the stallion is not currently enrolled, the stallion money goes to the next stallion in the placings that is currently enrolled.

2D full section split / barrel racing paying straight payback, 8 places. $5,000 Open Bonus ($500 to stallion owners - 1st each division, $4,500 to horse owners). $5,000 Breakaway Bonus ($500 to stallion owners - 1st & 2nd place, $4,500 to owners), paying 8 places.
