The Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association, in partnership with MedStar Health and Adventist HealthCare LifeWork Strategies, will host its annual Health Fair on Monday, October 5, from 9 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Recreation Room at Laurel Park.

Maryland horsemen are encouraged to participate in an industry-wide survey soliciting commends regarding ways to promote greater consistency in scratch procedures nationwide and to improve the quality of data used to understand and support equine welfare.

Frequently asked questions about what changed, what did not, how the acquisition is financed and why ownership is the fiscally responsible choice.

MTHA encourages all horsemen to promptly report any concerns involving the racing or training surfaces at Laurel Park by emailing trackissues@mdhorsemen.com.
