PA is up there also.. NJ is great, Louisiana is pretty good, West Virginia also and New Mexico. NY has a real good breeders/owners incentive also.
I did a project about this two years ago for my "big project" in the RTIP.. I'll have to look up the results but I remember NY, PA, NM and NJ being very lucrative.

I did a little study on this last year (leaving out the major breeding states of Ky and Fla), and from a perspective of money prospects (i.e., MSW, allowance, statebred stakes, other incentives) and the quality of animal you need to win said purses, New Jersey is far and away the best.
The states I studied and what I found: 1) New Jersey 2) Louisiana 3) New York 4) California 5) Texas 6) West Virginia 7) Pennsylvania 8) Maryland

The biggest issue that NJ has is no year round racing program. There is no where to run a Jbred from December to May.

From a standing stallion perspective, outside of KY, I feel it tails off considerably. The biggest drawback to states like WV, NJ, NM is there isn't much to breed your mare back to. MD and PA have done well in recent years to draw some nice stallions, LA probably a notch below.
NY, FL, and CA are probably still the tops, with NY offering probably the best mix of breeder awards / quality stallions

I agree with the NJ-bred answer. Owning an NJB is more profitable than selling heroin, and only half as degrading.

I went to two proms at Garden State in my day.

And to address Chuck's point about no winter racing in the Garden State, I believe that NJ ammended the program in the last 6 months to include NY performance in their awards...

I guess in reality if you have a statebred in any state other than KY or FL and they are a legit racehorse you will be in great shape. The problem is that legit horses coming out of statebred programs are few and far between.

Pops, never mention Fl breds in the same sentence with NY and Cal breds. 1- Kentucky 2- Florida (5 lgts behind) 3- Louisiana, Maryland, Cal, NY, NJ (about 50 lgts behind for the show position)
