 Horsemen Reminder:
Please check your horses paperwork, as no horses will be allowed on the grounds of Plainridge without a current negative Coggins and EHV vaccine. We will keep you posted as to any other necessary requirements as they become available to us. 

 TRAINERS- YOU NO LONGER HAVE TO SUBMIT A PAPER LASIX REQUEST FORM TO PUT ON OR TAKE A HORSE OFF OF LASIX!
To promote Social Distancing, you may now email the name of the horses(s) that you are requesting to be placed on or removed from the furosemide (LASIX) program. mgcracinglicense@massgaming.gov
Send the name of the horse(s) along with your name and include an email address for verification. If you do not have an email address, include your phone number.
Any Questions, please call Dr. Alex Lightbown at 1-617-979-8436 for assistance.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

The following link is the Protocol approved by the MGC for racing at Plainridge Park Casino.  Please take the time to read it.  It is very important for everyone to understand and follow it,  as our racing future depends on it.  Besides the now-familiar practices of social distancing, washing your hand, not touching your hands to your face, face coverings, and frequent use of hand sanitizers, we need to follow all instructions we receive upon entering the premise.  The Agricultural Department has offered their assistance to the horsemen and women at Mondays Qualifiers to ensure safe practices are followed, Board members will be available as well.  You will be expected to clean up the area assigned to you upon your departure, which means not leaving empty water bottles or containers of any kind, tape, vet wraps, or food wrappers. Leave with everything you bring.
This is a new time, a new era and we all need to do our part to ensure the safety of ourselves, others, our horses, and the future of our Industry.
Your HHANE Board of Directors.

Link to Protocols - Must Read

The fillable licenses for new licensees are on the mass gaming website: https://massgaming.com/licensing/horse-racing-licenses/. Instructions also have been updated to read for both new and renewal licenses, they can be mailed, faxed or emailed. They’ll still need to get the payment to mass gaming. The email address is: mgcracinglicense@massgaming.gov.
Also, they are going paperless for the Furosemide (Lasix) program request form. Now, trainers can email the horses they want on Lasix to that same email address: mgcracinglicense@massgaming.gov.

This should help the trainers because they will have an email record of who they’ve added or taken off.
If the trainer’s email address does not include their name, please include your name in the email, so it’s clear who it’s coming from, that would help greatly.
