    (B) have entered Indiana by November 1, 2008, and by July 1, 2009, each year thereafter.

    (3) All mares must remain in Indiana continuously until foaling except if the donor mare and recipient mare(s) are registered and reside in the state by July 1, in which case the donor mare may leave the state to flush embryos. The commission must be notified in writing prior to the time when the mare leaves.

      (b) In the event a mare entered Indiana or is registered with the commission after July 1, the foal (which must be foaled in Indiana) may be eligible to be registered as an Indiana bred. To be eligible:

    (1) the donor mare must be bred back to a registered Indiana stallion in the year of foaling for the foal to qualify as an Indiana bred; and

    (2) the stallion must be registered with the commission in the year the foal was conceived. If the donor mare and recipient mare(s) arrive after July 1, the donor mare and recipient mare(s) must reside in the state until June 30th of the foaling year.

      (c) If the mare fails to conceive when bred or is unfit to breed due to health reasons, a veterinarian certificate is required from a licensed veterinarian.

      (d) If the mare does not conceive, she must remain:

    (1) open for that breeding season in order for the mare's current foal to be eligible to be registered as an Indiana bred; and

    (2) in Indiana for a period of thirty (30) days from the foaling date and the mare and foal must be inspected by a commission representative prior to leaving the state.

      (e) In the event there is more than one (1) recipient mare:

    (1) Each recipient mare and foal must be properly registered.

    (2) There must be at least one (1) foal sired by a registered Indiana stallion in every other foal crop produced from the donor mare. If the mare fails to produce a live sired foal, then medical reports must be submitted to show an attempt to produce a sired foal was made.

      (h) The donor mare may leave the state to participate in:

    (1) stakes;

    (2) medical care; or

    (3) a mare leaving the state for an advertised public sale may:
