The Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association will host the first in a series of online Continuing Education seminars starting in January. It will provide Maryland horsemen with an opportunity to earn credit toward a CE program that will take effect when a Maryland Racing Commission regulation receives final approval.

Mick Peterson, executive director of the Racing Surfaces Testing Laboratory, will kick off the series with a presentation on Racetrack Safety and RSTL’s Maintenance Quality System, which is a research-based electronic data collection service that provides racetracks an efficient method for assessing and maintaining the track surface.
