Last Day for Early Bird Pearl Series Entries

Earlybird entries for the Entain-NZB Insurance Pearl Series close today Monday 31 March 2025, for 2023-born yearling fillies. 

The earlybird entry of $1,000 + GST saves you $500, and gives you the opportunity to win a share of $2.9 million on offer.

The Pearl Series scheme includes up to 100 individual races for fillies and mares over four seasons' racing (two to five years of age), with bonuses for each race of $28,000 (1st = $20,000, 2nd = $4,000, 3rd = $2,000), plus the winning trainer and nominator receive $1,000 each.  

The Series also includes a Pearl Series Final race, with an extra $100,000 in bonuses on top of the stake money on offer.

To nominate your 2023-born fillies, click here or contact NZTBA as soon as possible.

NZB Insurance is proud to sponsor the Pearl Bonus Series for fillies and mares for over 12 years, in conjunction with NZTBA, NZTR and Entain.

With bidding closing from 6pm on Tuesday 1 April, buyers will have until 5pm (NZT) this Thursday 3 April to secure entry at the discounted rate of $1,000 + GST — a saving of $500 + GST.
