With the consolidation of all training operations at Laurel Park given the closure of Pimlico Race Course for the redevelopment project, the Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association will recognize one member of the backstretch community.
Trainers and owners are encouraged to submit nominations to MTHA the staff, preferably before the Christmas holiday. To submit a worker to be considered email their name, position and a summary of why they deserve this award to info@mdhorsemen.com.
The MTHA each year celebrates the contributions of those who work with our Thoroughbreds each day in the stable area.



MTHA has launched a redesigned mdhorsemen.com, featuring a fresh look and a more organized layout that makes it easier for owners, trainers and backstretch workers to find the information they need.

The next Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association Board of Directors meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, November 24 at 11 a.m.

MTHA has launched a dedicated 2026 Board of Directors Election page at mdhorsemen.com/election, bringing candidate profiles, voting instructions and election resources together in one convenient location.
