Don’t forget to pay your racing Owners Participation Fee
A racing participation fee is assessed annu- ally to all recorded owners of race starters. Recorded owner of multiple horses will pay fee one time if the exact name is the same on all horses. Payment is due on or before March 1 annually with late fees assessed after March 1. Non-payment of the owner participation fee will not reflect on a horse’s past performance as records will be kept on all horses; however, if a horse qualifies for any award, they will be ineligible to receive it if the fee or subsequent late payment penalty has not been paid.
All racing year-end awards will be awarded to the owner or lessee on record as of Dec. 31 of the qualifying year, given the owner or lessee on record has paid all fees and is a current member (See fee schedule in front of the APHA Rule Book).
racing Fee schedule:
Annual Racing Participation fee: $25 due by March 1
Late fee: $100 after March 1
