Washington-bred owner's bonus and breeder's award distribution formula.

(1) The one percent Washington-bred owner's bonus funds collected from each racing association must be paid in accordance with RCW 67.16.102 by the commission at the end of the race meet to the licensed owners of Washington-bred horses finishing first, second, third and fourth in the racing association's race meet. The formula for the equitable distribution of the one percent Washington-bred owner's bonus funds will be as follows:
(a) Calculate the payment factor by dividing the total Washington-bred owner's bonus funds collected at the race meet by the total amount of winnings (earnings) of the Washington-bred horses finishing first, second, third, and fourth in the race meet.
(b) Multiply the winnings (earnings) of each Washington-bred owner by the payment factor to determine the amount of the Washington-bred owner's bonus to be paid to the owner.
(2) The Washington-bred breeder's award funds must be collected by the Class A or B racing association as required in RCW 67.16.175, and will be distributed by the commission. The award funds must be paid to the breeder of record of Washington-bred horses finishing first, second, and third in the racing association's race meet. The formula for the distribution of the breeder's awards at each Class A or B racing association will be as follows:
(a) Seventy-five percent of the breeder's award funds will be allocated to those Washington-bred horses finishing first. To calculate the payment factor for first place Washington-bred horses, divide the total Washington-bred breeder award fund allocated to first place finishers at the race meet by the total amount of winnings (earnings) of the Washington-bred horses finishing first at the race meet. Multiply the winnings (earnings) of each Washington-bred breeder by the payment factor to determine the amount of the Washington-bred breeder's award to be paid to the breeder of record.
(b) Fifteen percent of the breeder's award funds will be allocated to those Washington-bred horses finishing second. To calculate the payment factor for second place Washington-bred horses, divide the total Washington-bred breeder award fund allocated to second place finishers at the race meet by the total amount of winnings (earnings) of the Washington-bred horses finishing second at the race meet. Multiply the winnings (earnings) of each Washington-bred breeder by the payment factor to determine the amount of the Washington-bred breeder's award to be paid to the breeder of record.
(c) Ten percent of the breeder's award funds will be allocated to those Washington-bred horses finishing third. To calculate the payment factor for third place Washington-bred horses, divide the total Washington-bred breeder award fund allocated to third place finishers at the race meet by the total amount of winnings (earnings) of the Washington-bred horses finishing third at the race meet. Multiply the winnings (earnings) of each Washington-bred breeder by the payment factor to determine the amount of the Washington-bred breeder's award to be paid to the breeder of record.
(d) The racing association is not required to include any interest or other financial benefit earned during the collection of the breeder's award.
(3) Owner's bonus and breeder's awards must be distributed within ninety days after the end of the race meet at which they were generated. Any owner's bonus or breeder's award that cannot be delivered to the rightful recipient within the time frames in chapter 63.29 RCW will be forwarded to the department of revenue as unclaimed property as required in chapter 63.29 RCW.
