Horsemen Encouraged To Use Email To Report Racing Surface Feedback, Backstretch Concerns

The Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (MTHA) and The Maryland Jockey Club (TMJC) encourage all horsemen at Laurel Park to take advantage of the dedicated email system established to streamline communication and resolve issues efficiently.
If you have feedback about the racing surfaces, please email:
📧 trackissues@mdhorsemen.com
For barn and backstretch facility concerns, use:
📧 backstretchissues@mdhorsemen.com
These email addresses are monitored by MTHA and TMJC staff, and are designed to ensure your concerns are addressed as promptly as possible. If you do not have access to email, a staff member from either organization can assist in reporting your issue on your behalf.
Timely reporting helps everyone—your feedback plays a key role in keeping our facility safe, functional, and responsive to the needs of the racing community.
