Clock ticking to nominate your horses to the lucrative VOBIS program

With the nominations deadline approaching, Racing Victoria (RV) would like to remind owners of the benefits of its VOBIS program which offers in excess of $30 million in prizemoney and bonuses each season.

The three-tiered program comprises VOBIS Silver, VOBIS Gold and VOBIS Platinum, with VOBIS Gold upgrades now open with a nomination fee of $1,100 payable to nominate your horse and become eligible for the lucrative incentives.

Provided they are VOBIS Silver-nominated, horses can be upgraded to the VOBIS Gold program, giving them access to $21 million in VOBIS Gold prizemoney and bonuses.

The VOBIS Platinum program is open exclusively to the progeny of VOBIS Sires stallions, with nominated horses eligible to compete in The Showdown and the VOBIS Platinum Guineas, worth a combined $1.5 million.         

An additional $7.5 million in VOBIS Platinum vouchers is also available with $30,000 in VOBIS Platinum vouchers on offer to the eligible winners of more than 250 VOBIS Gold races programmed in Victoria each season. Since its inception, more than $3.6 million has been paid out in VOBIS Platinum vouchers, which can be redeemed on an eligible yearling at an approved sale or with an approved syndicator or used to offset the cost of a VOBIS Sires service fee.

Eligible horses which have already been nominated to VOBIS Silver can then upgrade directly to VOBIS Platinum for $1,100, giving connections access to all the benefits of VOBIS Gold at no additional cost.   

VOBIS Gold & Platinum upgrades for 2022 born foals will close on Friday, 30 November 2024, please either call 1800 870 799 or click here for further information.
