they have their own qualified testing officials.

Race Day Insurance

The Wisconsin Harness Horse Association

recognizes the need for universal insurance for

the drivers in our sport. We are proud to

continue to offer to help subsidize the insurance

costs so that every race meet in the State of

Wisconsin is able to afford race day on-track

driver’s insurance. In return, each host track

that receives a subsidy has agreed to the policy

that ALL drivers must be 2017 Members of the

WHHA in order to drive at their race meet in the

State of Wisconsin this year. Drivers will be

allowed to join on race day prior to the first post.

“Scratch Reasons”

The scratch reason of “Judges – Not Reported” is no

longer available for selection in eTrack. This change was

made to coincide with USTA Rule 14, Section 14 which

states “Notification of scratched horse – Whenever the

judges list a horse as being “scratched” by the judges

they shall also list the specific reason for the scratch.”

Please be aware that if you scratch your horse at any

Wisconsin race meet, you must provide the Judge / Clerk

of Course with a valid scratch reason. This will be

strictly enforced.

“Social Media”

With an ongoing effort to enhance the WHHA and harness

racing in Wisconsin on social media, please take the time out

to develop a Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or any other social

media account and post your racing photos, videos, stories,

etc. Furthermore, please feel free to post, follow and tag our

official outlets.
