‘Transferred as Retired’ Goes Digital

[Wandering Eyes]

The Jockey Club's 'Transferred as Retired from Racing' process can now be completed digitally through the Interactive Registration (IR) website at registry.jockeyclub.com.

Previously, the retired from racing process required notarized signatures on a hardcopy form. With the assistance of digital signature verification, The Jockey Club will be able to collect the signatures required to complete the retired from racing process through IR.

“Being able to ensure a horse can still be used for breeding, but cannot race is important for many owners, and we wanted to make the retired from racing process as easy as possible, yet still ensure the integrity of the process,” said Rick Bailey, registrar of The Jockey Club.

To date, more than 5,400 Thoroughbreds have been recorded as retired from racing. A list of these horses can be viewed through IR.
