Do you have a horse going to the U.S. to race? If so, Standardbred Canada has some important information you need to know regarding eligibility fees.
Prior to travelling the United States to race, Canadians are encouraged to pay their eligibility with Standardbred Canada. Canadians may opt to pay the U.S. eligibility fee when going to the U.S. to race, but this is not advised IF you plan on returning to Canada to race in the same year if your horse is solely Canadian owned, as you will be required to pay the Canadian eligibility fee as well.
To avoid duplication of payment, Standardbred Canada advises members with horses that are solely Canadian-owned and heading to the US to race, but returning to Canada this year, to only pay the Canadian eligibility fee.
