Officials with the Atlantic Provinces Harness Racing Commission have informed Trot Insider that approval has been given for upcoming qualifying sessions at Inverness Raceway and Red Shores’ Summerside Raceway.
The Inverness qualifiers will take place on two upcoming Sundays at noon (May 20 and 27) and six upcoming Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. (May 23 and 30, and June 6, 13, 20 and 27).
The Summerside qualifiers will take place Sunday, May 6 and Sunday, May 13 and will kick off at 1:00 p.m.
It is important that horsepeople are aware that a Standardbred Canada field representative will be on hand to conduct business during the qualifying sessions.
Standardbred Canada would like to remind all horsepeople that all memberships and eligibility fees need to be paid. Additionally, name changes need to be made before a horse ever qualifies. Coggins tests are required as set out in the rules in your racing jurisdiction.

Additionally, if a horse’s $73 eligibility fee is not paid prior to it making its first start (in a race or qualifier), the horse will be suspended after its first outing in 2018, and the owner of the horse will then be invoiced. For complete information, click here.
Membership renewals and eligibility fees are two of many services that can be purchased online. To pay online, register with the SC website and sign into eShop by clicking the eShop button at the top of the homepage.
