(2) registered and have entered Indiana by November 1, 2008, by July 1, 2009, and each year thereafter; and

(3) remain in Indiana continuously until foaling.

  (b) A current copy of the mare's American Quarter Horse Association registration certificate or front and back of the mare's Jockey Club papers along with lease agreements are to be included with the registration.

  (c) In the event a mare entered Indiana or is registered with the commission after November 1, 2008, by July 1, 2009, and each year thereafter, the foal (which must be foaled in Indiana) may be eligible to be registered as an Indiana bred. To be eligible, the mare must be:

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

(2) remain 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.

  (f) The commission must be notified in writing and provide proper documentation for any mare and/or foal leaving the state for medical treatment.
