Horseracing Integrity & Safety Act discussions

William Lear, Vice Chairman of The Jockey Club, is this week's special guest on the Harness Racing Alumni show.

 

You will hear about the Horseracing Integrity & Safety Act (HISA) directly from the man who is the main creator of the needed Legislation. Lear also explains how the new regulations were scrutinized by Constitutional attorneys before being presented to the Senate and the House.

 

He explains to Freddie and the guys that it is not a 'one size fits all' bill and that there would be different medication rules for each breed, while making it clear that the harness racing cost would be negotiated for a lower price. Lear then explains how the innovative testing would be done. The goal of the legislation is to have national uniform standards on medication and safety. Don't miss this broadcast because it's filled with outstanding information.
