It has come to our attention that the HISA shoe rule has not been consistently adhered to.
Effective January 1, 2025, any trainer’s horses in the paddock for a race, found to be non-compliant with the HISA Shoe Rule, will be subject to shoes being pulled and/or horses being scratched and fines assessed to both the Trainer and the Blacksmith.
Additionally, any claimed horses found to be non-compliant with the HISA Shoe Rule will result in fines for the Trainer and Blacksmith of the entrant.
Repeat offenders will face possible suspension from all 1/ST Racing Properties.
