There are many exciting changes coming to Indiana Quarter Horse
Racing in 2013. In this section, we’ll address three areas of change
including IHRC, MARKETING and RACING IN INDIANA.
INDIANA HORSE RACING COMMISSION – The 2013 Quarter
Horse Breed Development Program was presented and
unanimously approved by the Commission at the February 22nd
IHRC meeting. Additionally, the following Rule Changes were
presented by the Quarter Horse Breed Development Advisory
Committee and approved by the Commission.
71 IAC 14.5-3-5 – Open Stakes Bonus Repealed – There will no
longer be a bonus paid to Indiana Bred Horses that Qualify for an
Open Stake Race.
MARKETING
71 IAC 14.5-3-4 – Purse Supplement in open races – A purse
supplement of Þfteen thousand dollars ($15,000) is to be paid to
the owner of an Indiana bred that Þnishes Þrst, second or
third when competing in any open overnight race,
excluding trials and claiming races. The supplement
shall be distributed in the same manner and
percentages in which purses are paid.
The New “inQ” logo
featured in this month’s Horse
Resource Magazine is the new face of
Quarter Horse Racing in the State of
Indiana. This new look is just the beginning of
some signiÞcant changes that will be rolled out
in the 2013 marketing plan of the Quarter Horse
Racing Association of Indiana. The new plan aims to
customize relevant content to the individual needs
of the many partners that are connected to Quarter
Horse Racing in the State of Indiana. In order to
accomplish this, we’ve developed the new brand
we call “inQ”. It will serve as the gateway to the
fast-paced world of Indiana Quarter Horse
Racing. With its bold, yet simplistic design,
“inQ” is ushering in the new era of horse
racing in the United States, being led
by Indiana’s Quarter Horse
Program.
71 IAC 14.5-3-1,2,3 – Owner, Breeder, Stallion
Owner Awards – The amount of each award is
12.5% of the gross purse, distribution is:
•Fifty percent (50%) is awarded to winner;
not to exceed Þve thousand dollars
($5,000)
•Thirty percent (30%) is awarded to
second place; not to exceed three
thousand dollars ($3,000)
•Twenty percent (20%) is awarded to
third place, not to exceed two thousand
dollars ($2,000)
•Awards will be paid by the commission
71 IAC 1.5-1-19 ÒBreederÓ DeÞned Ð For
Indiana Registered Quarter Horses
“Breeder” means the owner of the horse’s
dam at the time of the dam’s registration
with the Breed Development program.
71 IAC 14.5-3-2 Breed Awards – For breed
awards earned January 1, 2013 and
thereafter, the recipient is the owner of
the dam at the time of the dam’s
registration with the Breed Development
Program.

RACING IN INDIANA IN 2013 – The acquisition of Indiana Downs and it’s casino in Shelbyville, Indiana was
Þnalized on February 20th by Indianapolis-based Centaur Holdings, LLC. Centaur also owns Hoosier Park in
Anderson. Along with this announcement, Rod Ratcliff , Centaur Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, announced
the following personnel: John Schuster is the GM of Racing at Indiana Downs, Rick Moore is the GM of Racing at
Hoosier Park, and Brian Elmore is the VP of Racing for Centaur.
Indiana Downs will be home for Quarter Horse and Thoroughbred Racing
in 2013 – From the day the track opens for training to the last day
of racing in October, Quarter Horses and TB’s will be
running at Indiana Downs. No more
transitioning from track to track in July. There
will be more barns built at Indiana Downs to
create 300 more stalls, but until they are
ready, there will be stalls rented at Turfway
Park to accommodate some horses in
training. Indiana
Downs is
footing the
bill for the
stall rent
and Daily
Vans to
get horses
to Indiana
Downs for
racing.
I N D I A N A
Dear Quarter Horse Racing Enthusiast,
I wanted to take some time to personally Þll you in on some details of the day to day runnings of the Quarter
Horse Racing Association of Indiana. There have been many great changes and additions to our industry in the
past month, here are just a few:
Our board of Directors has been busy over the past month and I am happy to report to you that we have three
new members who have joined our team. I wanted to congratulate Patrick Rowels for being elected to serve on
the board of directors for a 3 year term. I also wanted to congratulate Vic Conway and Candice Newell on
being appointed to the board by our president, Chris Duke, after FebruaryÕs board meeting. We are excited at
the prospect of their addition and look forward to working with them to further Quarter Horse Racing in the
state of Indiana.
I have some additional information regarding the new additions to Indiana Downs. The new barns at Indiana
Downs are scheduled to be completed by July 29th. In order to accommodate all the horses this spring, as part
of the transition plan, Centaur will rent 150 stalls from Turfway Park in neighboring Kentucky. The Indiana
allotment, along with commitments from other horsemen, will allow Turfway to remain open as a training
center. Indiana Downs will be footing the bill for the stall rental and the transportation of horses from
Turfway to Indy Downs for racing.
In the area of news related to our races this year, the Indiana Downs Stake Race Schedule has been released!
The Þrst nominations are due by April 1st, so mark your calendar and get them in so you arenÕt faced with a
late fee, or possibly get left out of the action. Scott Piene, the racing secretary at Indiana Downs is working on
the Condition Books and they will be ready around the 3rd week in March. They will also be available online at
QHRAI.NET and INDIANADOWNS.COM. The track is tentatively set to open for training around March 17th. We
will keep updates on QHRAI.NET. This year there are 6 days designated for All Quarter Horse Race Days in
addition to the normal races we run at the end of the TB card. Check out the Indiana Downs Race Calendar in
this Magazine for race dates and post times.
April 5-7, 2013 marks the historic 35th year for the Hoosier Horse Fair & Expo at the Indiana State
Fairgrounds. The Quarter Horse Racing Association of Indiana will be there once again to promote the great
sport of Quarter Horse Racing to many people who are already in the horse world. We will have many
promotions that are geared towards increasing attendance at the live races!
Youth Day Applications are currently available on the QHRAI website! If you have a son or daughter, neighbor,
niece, nephew, grandchild, or if you are between the ages of 14 and 18 years old and want to see Þrsthand the
behind the scenes process of our racing industry, please Þll out the application in this magazine or online.
This experience includes helping race horses in training and the opportunity to help a trainer get his horse
ready for a race and participate in the paddock walk with the trainer and the horse. Youth day is going to be
June 15th and the Quarter Horse Racing Association of Indiana is proud to partner with Indiana Downs to host
this event.
Finally, the Legislative Session is now in full swing and will be until the end of April. This year, as in every year
since the passing of racinos, the Horse Racing Industry is at risk of having the money that the track puts into
the horse racing purse accounts reduced. Now is the time to contact your legislators and tell them about the
amount of money you personally put into the Indiana Economy because you race horses. Tell them that you
contribute to the one billion dollars of total economic impact and that any reduction in the amount of money
that is dedicated to horse racing will cause a greater loss to Indiana. Ask them to support the current
agreement that is between the race tracks and the horsemen.
Looking forward to seeing you at the track this month!

Important Information for 2013 Regarding Existing Out of Competition Rules
All horses nominated to stake races will be eligible for out of competition testing from the day of nomination. Several drugs were added to Out of Competition Testing for 2011 including Zilpaterol, Ractopamine
or any similar agent. If you have any questions about 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 Commission at http://www.
in.gov/hrc/ or (317) 233-3120.
How This Affects You
• 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.
• If the owner/trainer has been contacted and notified that their horse has been selected for Out of Competition Testing, that horse must be produced at the track by the time provided by the IHRC.
• 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.
• The current trainer MUST be named at the time of nomination. If there is a change of trainer at any time,
the new information must be forwarded to the Q.H.R.A.I. immediately.
•
If a nominated horse becomes lame, sick or for any other reason will NOT compete in the trials or finals, he must be officially
scratched through the QHRAI (prior to being contacted by IHRC) or he will remain eligible for ALL Out of Competition Rules.
•
Except for stake races where high money earners are preferred, there will be no refunds of nominations or payments.
By signing and submitting this stakes nomination form, the trainer is hereby agreeing to abide by Indiana Horse Racing code.
Once this nomination is received by QHRAI, you will receive a reminder for next payment date and a list of nominated horses. Sustaining payments must be submitted on time whether or not you receive this reminder. Nomina¬tions and sustaining payments will be added to the stakes
purses. A 20% marketing and administration fee will be withheld from all open stakes nomination and sustaining payments.
Late payments - If nomination is missed - double the missed nomination plus the first sustaining payment. Must be postmarked by the first
sustaining payment date. Late pay after first sustaining payment is double missed payments plus $5,000 plus 2nd sustaining payment. Must be
postmarked by June 1st. No late Nominations or payments accepted after June 1st (or after final sustaining payment date, whichever is earliest).
