Heaven and Horseshoes, A Worship and Community Center, is preparing to officially open Friday, Feb. 6. The 7,000-square foot facility is located just outside the entrance to the backstretch area at Horseshoe Indianapolis Racing and Casino and will provide space for numerous events for Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing participants. The building will be occupied by the Indiana Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association (HBPA) along with Quarter Horse Racing Association of Indiana (QHRAI). “We are very grateful to Caesars Entertainment for providing the property and funding for this project,” said Joe Davis, President of Indiana HBPA. “The facility turned out beyond our expectations and will allow us to provide numerous events throughout the year that benefit our horsemen and women.” In addition to the gathering area, Heaven and Horseshoes includes a 126-seat Chapel, complete with a full audio visual system. “Our ministry for our racing community is a vital part of our operations,” added Mickey Sajche, Chaplain for both QHRAI and Indiana HBPA. “This space allows us to provide more efficient space for weekly bible study groups as well as weekly church services. We plan to have our first service Sunday, February 8 and hope to offer weekly bilingual services each Sunday evening.” Heaven and Horseshoes will conduct a ribbon cutting ceremony Feb. 6 followed by a program in the Chapel featuring guest speaker Pat Day, retired Hall of Fame jockey.

The cost of registering a foal with The Jockey Club will rise from $265 to $325 in 2026, while filing a report of mares bred will go from $40 to $50, according to a new fee structure posted on the Registry page. The Jockey Club's Jim Gagliano said that the fees were largely driven by an increase in the price of DNA sampling, along with overall inflation costs. He added that the organization would be spending significantly more money on aftercare this year, above and beyond these increases. “Some registration fees were adjusted this year, resulting in an average increase of 11%,” said Gagliano in a written response to the TDN. “These increases were prompted in part by significantly increased costs for DNA sampling of 57% from the public university that supplies this service to The Jockey Club. Overall, registration fee increases are moderately ahead of the inflation rate of 38.2% since 2013. “Proceeds from the registry as well as our commercial companies totaling $7 million will be used to fund numerous initiatives in 2026, including aftercare, marketing, advocacy, research, and workforce development,” Gagliano continued. “Specifically, The Jockey Club's support for aftercare initiatives will increase 46%.” Notably, said Gagliano, “The Jockey Club is planning a significant expansion of aftercare by increasing support for the Thoroughbred Incentive Program (TIP), enhancing and expanding the 2026 TIP. Championship Horse Show and introducing a series of Thoroughbred-only horse shows in 2027 through the Thoroughbred Incentive Program.” We publish details about The Jockey Club's industry support in our annual Industry Impact Report which is available to the public. The 2026 report will be published soon.

Medication trends, integrity issues in the U.S. and abroad, plus how investigators can impact aftercare are a few examples of the session topics that the Organization of Racing Investigators (ORI) will cover during their 30th annual training conference, which will be held from Sunday, Mar. 1 to Wednesday, Mar. 4 at Tampa Bay Downs. As the trend goes, the agenda places a strong emphasis on providing participants with security and investigative backgrounds access to the latest tradecraft and the opportunity to network with other members. “We are excited to have the opportunity to host the 30th annual ORI conference this year to coincide with a century of live racing at Tampa Bay Downs,” said Deanna Nicol, ORI conference chair and director of security at the track. “Our executive board is looking forward to presenting and discussing the most current trends in racing through a lineup of amazing speakers.” After a reception on Sunday, attendees will hear on Monday from the likes of Benjamin Ho, the deputy manager of racing security & integrity at the Hong Kong Jockey Club, Dr. Michael Hardy, executive director of the Racing Medication & Testing Consortium and Rachel Stipe, agent for the Thoroughbred Racing Protective Bureau. A dinner and keynote followed by an awards ceremony is scheduled for Monday evening. The next day includes panel discussions that delve into subjects like outlaw equine clinics, investigator relationships with judges and stewards and a host of other topics meant to add to a member's toolkit. Attendees from countries outside of the U.S. only add to the experience. “In recent years, the international interest in the conference has led the ORI to invest in relationships through an international exchange program,” said Keeneland's Vice President of Equine Safety Dr. Stuart Brown. “Seeking to benchmark accepted standards with our counterparts is something that is intertwined at the conference and the bigger picture is about advancing these critical integrity measures around the world.” Click here, for the complete ORI Conference schedule.
