There is a new mailing address for all fee payments to the New Jersey Sire Stakes. Starting with the Feb. 15 first sustaining payment to keep horses eligible to the NJSS Pari-Mutuel and Green Acres Divisions, checks should be mailed to NJSS at Box 330, Trenton, N.J. 08625.

The NJSS Pari-Mutuel Division payment is $350 for 2 year olds and $400 for 3 year olds. The Green Acres Division payment is $100 for both 2 and 3 year olds.

Also on Feb. 15, a $650 supplemental 2007 yearling nomination (for foals of 2006) can be made for eligibility to the N. J. Sire Stakes. That fee is in addition to the sustaining payments for 2 year olds also due on Feb. 15.

The 2-year-old sustaining payment must be made in order to keep the horse eligible as a 3 year old in 2009, even if the horse does not race in 2008 as a 2 year old. Supplemental nominations are also due Feb. 15 for the NJSS-sponsored 2008 Lou Babic Open Pace ($400) and Babic Filly Pace ($300).

These payments must be in U. S. funds. No late payments will be accepted and no billing notices will be mailed. Certified mail is strongly recommended. (NJSS)
