Hair Testing at Remington Park

No Quarter Horse Paint or Appaloosa horse will be allowed to enter a race at Remington Park unless a negative hair test has been provided prior to entry. All pre-entry hair testing will be facilitated by OQHRA. The cost is $240 per horse. Results will be returned to Remington Park within 10 business days. A positive test will render the horse ineligible to enter a race at an Oklahoma racetrack. Further, under Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission Rules (OHRC) no horse carrying a prohibited substance in its body shall be brought within the enclosure, entered in a race, or participate in a race and will not be able to remain stabled on the grounds of the racetrack. Any trainer with a positive test will be notified by Remington Park. All horses with positive a hair test will be listed on the hair testing ineligibility list that will be posted on the OQHRA website.

Schooling Races

Overnights | Webcast

Schooling races are an important part of preparing horses to race. For 2026, there are updated procedures in place, and it is important that horsemen understand the expectations before entering.

Entry process and schedule

Entries for schooling races will be taken on Fridays, and races will be drawn on Mondays at 11:00 a.m. Jockey agents must be present at the draw to name riders.

There will be no more than 14 schooling races per day.

Horsemen should review the entry schedule and make sure entries are submitted on time.

Entry fee and jockey mount payment

The total fee for each schooling race entry is $125.

That fee is broken down as follows:

$50 schooling race fee

$75 jockey mount fee

This change was made after jockeys requested compensation for schooling race mounts. OQHRA entered into an agreement to address that request and ensure riders are paid for their participation.

No horse will be drawn into a schooling race unless the full fee is on file. There will be no exceptions.

Registration papers and funding

Two requirements will be strictly enforced for schooling race entries:

Foal registration papers must be on file

Owner accounts must have sufficient funds to cover the entry fee

Having registration papers on file ensures correct identification and accurate information.

Having owner accounts properly funded avoids last-minute issues and delays.

OQHRA understands this is a change for everyone and encourages horsemen to ensure their papers are in order and accounts are properly funded prior to schooling or entering races.

Oklahoma Bred/Jockey Agreement

In previous years it was customary for the Remington Park Bookkeeper to automatically deduct the owner’s account an additional payment to jockeys based on the Oklahoma Bred Purse Supplement earned. We must now require each owner to “Opt-In” for that deduction. Each owner that wishes to pay their jockey based on the additional purse supplement must complete a form and submit it to the bookkeeper at Remington Park BEFORE the running of the race in which they have an eligible Oklahoma Bred horse. This form will authorize the deduction of the owner’s earnings for payment to the jockeys.

This online form can be conveniently completed by owners, and upon submission, a copy will be forwarded directly to the track's bookkeeper. If you would prefer to have a hard copy, those can be obtained from the horsemen’s bookkeeper.

To submit the form electronically please follow the link below:
