Registration

Registration of a horse means that you are entering that horse’s information into a searchable database of polo horse pedigrees and creating a verifiable starting point for your horse’s bloodline to be documented in the future.

Registration is open to any breed of horse used for polo. Registration of a polo horse also provides that horse and its breeder and trainers with the opportunity to be recognized for any future achievements. In order to establish the validity and maintain the integrity of the records, all horses registered will be required to complete a DNA Sample Kit.
