The Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (MTHA) Board of Directors has unanimously approved the creation of a new, dedicated email address designed to strengthen communication and engagement with its membership.
Effective immediately, MTHA members may submit feedback, ideas, and suggestions directly to the full Board of Directors by emailing:
This new initiative ensures that all correspondence sent to the address will be shared with every member of the Board, allowing for greater transparency, improved responsiveness, and a more direct line of communication between horsemen and leadership.
The Board believes that open communication is essential to the continued growth and success of Maryland racing. By creating a centralized channel for member input, the MTHA aims to encourage constructive dialogue and ensure that the voices of its members are heard and considered in the decision-making process.
Members are encouraged to use this email to share their thoughts, raise concerns, and offer ideas that can help strengthen the industry.




The MTHA will hold a public meeting Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 11 a.m. Eastern Time via Zoom to discuss a proposed digital auction process for horses receiving two or more claims in a claiming race.

An October 7 Daily Record article about proposed Maryland Racing Commission regulations has generated questions about increased penalties, medication enforcement and the state’s investment in Thoroughbred racing.
