With live harness racing underway in Alberta, New Brunswick, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, and scheduled to kick off in Nova Scotia and Ontario in June, many racetracks are asking Standardbred horsepeople to use Standardbred Canada's FREE Self-Serve online entry system to enter horses to race and to qualify.

Once condition sheets are posted, you can enter your horse from the comfort of your home anytime of the day until the entry box closes! (Note: at some time in the evening/overnight the system may not be available for approximately 1/2 an hour in order to do a backup)

SC’s Self Serve system allows you to enter into primary conditions, and provide back up conditions for your horses, if those races don’t fill. You may also enter additional drivers if your driver books off, and there is a comment section to ensure that any special instructions are seen by Race Office staff prior to the draw.

In January of 2020, SC launched the Self-Serve program and since that time, SC has made the following upgrades, resulting in a more user friendly and efficient program:

• Stable of Horses – features a list of horses so you can choose the horse you wish to enter. This shows the last start of the horse and current status. Horses that you train / own can be added or deleted any time.

• Stable of Drivers / Trainers – Create your own roster of drivers to choose from in a drop-down menu that appears anytime you choose a driver. Drivers can be added or deleted any time.

• Stable of Tracks – Create your own roster of racetracks to enter your horses and see condition sheets for these specific racetracks. Racetracks can be added or deleted at any time.

Fast and mobile-friendly, SC’s Self Serve is FREE to SC trainers in good standing. You have access seven days a week and can enter your horses from your smartphone, tablet, laptop or desktop computer.
