2024 Remington Park Hair Testing

Online Appointment and Payment Portal

OQHRA has created an easy way to schedule appointments and/or pay for hair testing! This is a digital way to make an appointment for up to 10 horses and make the payment online so that when you arrive for hair testing all the paperwork will be ready to go! You can schedule up to 10 horses at a time, you are required to pay at time of booking.

For trainers with owners needing to pay – Call/Text and schedule a time (405) 881-5120 and then send your owners the link along with the day/time you have an appointment. They do need to know when the appointment is and the horses name to be able to pay online.

Plan accordingly to retest before the current test expires to be eligible to enter for races – negative test result must be returned before a horse can enter a race – must allow 10 business days for test results to be returned – no exceptions and no rush fees.

• Allow up to 10 business days for test results. No horse will be allowed to enter a race before results come back.

• In case of a positive test, track management will contact the trainer.

• Special consideration will be made for horses needing to be tested in other jurisdictions. Contact the hair testing phone number for more info. Off-site testing will have to be approved on a case-by-case basis and must be conducted by a veterinarian under the auspices of a state regulatory body (racing commission) or Department of Agriculture.

The calendar and date chart (PDF HERE) are to help you keep track of good thru and safe dates. They are not a guarantee. It is trainer/owner responsibility to determine the best time to have a horse tested and to make the necessary arrangements. OQHRA makes every effort to contact the connections of horses nominated to any futurity or derby out of courtesy. It is your responsibility to know what races your horses will be running in and schedule an appointment accordingly. There will be no “Rush” samples, outside of stakes qualifiers.
