<strong>QHRAI</strong> <strong>August</strong> Newsletter<br />
<strong>August</strong> in Indiana. I hope we have more rain for the crops. I<br />
hope it pours and pours on every Sunday and Monday, BUT<br />
NOT SO MUCH ON THE DAYS WE RUN!!! Sundays and<br />
Mondays are the dark days at Hoosier Park, racing every Tuesday<br />
thru Saturday, with Quarter Horse Racing on Friday, Saturday<br />
and Tuesday. There is training on every day except Sunday!!<br />
Post time on Tuesday – Friday is 5:30 p.m. and post time<br />
on Saturday is 12:30 p.m.. Training is going great so far at the<br />
track, gates are out and the track is good. The first QH races are<br />
<strong>August</strong> 3rd and 4th with the trials for the Stallion Service Auction<br />
Futurity and Derby!! This is a huge Stakes filled meet, so<br />
get ready for some great racing!!<br />
Take a look at the photos from the stakes and events we had on<br />
QH Day at Indiana Downs!! I want to give a personal thanks<br />
to everyone who helped to make that day a huge success. It<br />
takes a ton of people helping to be able to get so many exciting<br />
things done in one day!! And a huge congratulations to the<br />
Stakes Winners!! Thanks again to the <strong>QHRAI</strong> Board of Directors,<br />
Indiana Downs Track Management and staff, Racing Office<br />
Staff and every other QH fan who helped make the day a great<br />
success. I always hate to see the meet end at Indiana Downs<br />
because that means the year of racing here is half over, but I look<br />
forward to starting up again at Hoosier Park and all the activities<br />
we have in the fall.<br />
Quarter Horse Day at Hoosier Park is October 13th. Hold that<br />
date. Post time on Saturday is 12:30p.m.. You won’t want to<br />
miss all the fun of the day, and the dinner that <strong>QHRAI</strong> is hosting<br />
after the races. We are hoping to get some very special entertainment<br />
this year, so please keep watching for more updated<br />
info!!<br />
The Speed Sale is set for October 28th at the Henry County Fairgrounds<br />
in New Castle. The deadline for getting your contracts<br />
mailed in is September 9th, so start thinking about what horses<br />
you might want to put in the sale this year. And if you don’t<br />
have horses to sell, think about how many you want to buy? Did<br />
you read the update about the graduate from last year’s sale?<br />
How many WH Johnnie Boy Red’s will be in the sale this year?<br />
<strong>QHRAI</strong> is dedicated to make this year’s sale better than ever.<br />
Watch <strong>QHRAI</strong>.net for dates and times of board meetings in <strong>August</strong>,<br />
September and October. Because we have live racing on<br />
Tuesday nights, we will not be having our board meetings on<br />
Tuesday. They will be the first Wednesday (following the first<br />
Tuesday) of every month at 6:00 pm. If there are any changes,<br />
they will be posted on <strong>QHRAI</strong>.net.<br />
Speaking of the website, we will be rolling out a new website<br />
“design” in the very near future thanks to the hard work of Dianne<br />
Bennett and Christa Conway. It’s not there yet, but it won’t<br />
be long!! Thanks Dianne and Christa!!<br />
There is going to be a Trainers Education Seminar sponsored by<br />
the Indiana Horse Racing Commission this fall. The seminar<br />
is tentatively scheduled for the morning of October 14, 2012 at<br />
Swifty Farm in Seymour. More details will follow.<br />
If you haven’t gotten your workers compensation paper work<br />
turned in yet, don’t delay. The IHRC has sent out letters for<br />
anyone who is still out of compliance. If you have questions,<br />
please contact the IHRC.<br />
Best of luck too everyone as we quick off the Hoosier Park<br />

Important Information<br />
All horses nominated to stake races will be eligible for out of competition testing from the day of nomination. Several drugs were<br />
added to Out of Competition Testing for 2011 including Zilpaterol, Ractopamine or any similar agent. If you have any questions about<br />
any of these rules, please refer to Indiana Code 71 IAC 8.5-2-5 and 71 IAC 8.5-3-4. You may also contact the Indiana Horse Racing<br />
Commission at http://www.in.gov/ hrc/ or (317) 233-3120.<br />
How This Affects You<br />
• Once a horse is nominated to a stake race, he WILL be in the pool of horses used for selection of Out of Competition Testing.<br />
• If the owner/trainer has been contacted and notified that their horse has been selected for Out of Competition Testing, that horse<br />
must be produced at the track by the time provided by the IHRC.<br />
• If the horse is not brought to the race track within the allotted time, the horse will be ineligible to race in Indiana for one year.<br />
• The current trainer MUST be named at the time of nomination. If there is a change of trainer at any time, the new information<br />
must be forwarded to the Q.H.R.A.I. immediately.<br />
• If a nominated horse becomes lame, sick or for any other reason will NOT compete in the trials or finals, he must be officially<br />
scratched through the <strong>QHRAI</strong> (prior to being contacted by IHRC)<br />
or he will remain eligible for ALL Out of Competition Rules.<br />
• Except for stake races where high money earners are preferred, there will be no refunds of nominations or payments.<br />
By signing and submitting this stakes nomination form, the trainer is hereby agreeing to abide by Indiana Horse Racing code.<br />
Once this nomination is received by <strong>QHRAI</strong>, you will receive a reminder for next payment date and a list of nominated horses.<br />
Sustaining payments must be submitted on time whether or not you receive this reminder. Nominations and sustaining payments<br />
will be added to the stakes purses. A 20% marketing and administration fee will be withheld from all open stakes nomination and<br />
sustaining payments.<br />
Late payments - If nomination is missed - double the missed nomination plus the sustaining payment. Must be postmarked by the<br />
sustaining payment date. No late nominations or payments accepted after sustaining payment date.<br />
All nominations and payments must be mailed to: <strong>QHRAI</strong><br />

<strong>QHRAI</strong> AND QUARTER HORSE FANS<br />
REALLY KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN!!<br />
June 30th was a huge event for <strong>QHRAI</strong> and Quarter Horse fans in Indiana!! In edition to a full card of Quarter<br />
Horse races including 5 stakes with purses totalling over half a million dollars, we managed to fit some<br />
other activities in the day!!<br />
The day was kicked off with a<br />
picnic sponsored by <strong>QHRAI</strong><br />
and Indiana Downs. The band<br />
“Down Shift” provided entertainment<br />
the crowd.<br />
Guests took tours,<br />
courtesy of great Indiana<br />
Downs folks,<br />
to the “backside” to<br />
see where horses are<br />
stalled, receiving barn,<br />
test barn and other features<br />
of the track.<br />
Lead Singer<br />
from the band<br />
Down Shift sang<br />
the National Anthem<br />
as the gate<br />
crew salutes the<br />
American Flag.<br />
Chris Duke, <strong>QHRAI</strong> President and Jen Perkins,<br />
AQHA “Racing Ace” discussed thier handicap<br />
picks with the crowd during the picnic. Free<br />
betting vouchers were given to anyone who had<br />
questions asked. Rumor has it that Chris out<br />
handicapped Jen, maybe his inside connections<br />
gave him a slight advantage!!
<strong>QHRAI</strong> News<br />
Johnnie Jamison, Head<br />
Starter, explains the process<br />
of getting a horse<br />
ready to break from the<br />
starting gates and gives the<br />
crowd an up close look of<br />
the huge metal gates!!<br />
<strong>QHRAI</strong> directors Ron<br />
Haynes and Butch Yike<br />
threw T Shirts to the<br />
crowd in between races<br />
to anxious spectators!!<br />
Some were happy with<br />
their catches!!<br />
There was a large crowd all day and night<br />
watching horses in the paddock and on the<br />
apron watching the races.
<strong>QHRAI</strong> News<br />
QUARTER HORSE<br />
DAY CONT’D<br />
Everyone was invited to a Pizza<br />
Party sponsored by <strong>QHRAI</strong> and<br />
Indiana Downs after the races<br />
where Jon and Janie Schuster<br />
were among those who served<br />
pizza to our fans. Mike and Mary<br />
Jo Renihan passed out American<br />
flags to help celebrate!!<br />
Who is that masked man?? er....<br />
Rabbit??? Visitors saw a different<br />
kind of racing from a 4 legged<br />
animal... "Weiner Dog Races".<br />
Although Chris, I mean the rabbit,<br />
seemed to cause some confusion<br />
with where the dogs were supposed<br />
to run, there were eventually<br />
winners that received prizes!!<br />
Not sure about any track records!!<br />
CONGRATULATIONS<br />
