Indianapolis, IN — The annual Indiana Nomination Book and Calendar is now available from the Indiana Standardbred Breed Development Program. The booklet was mailed in mid-February to over 4,200 Standardbred owners and trainers who were licensed with the Indiana Horse Racing Commission in 2007.

The Nomination Book features race schedules, conditions, and nomination forms to all events in the Standardbred Breed Development Program. The complimentary calendar features the 2007 Indiana Sires Stakes divisional champions and provides Indiana race information in an easy to use calendar format.

If you have already received your 2008 Nomination Book and Calendar, please note one of the dates listed for the Indiana Standardbred Sales Company Yearling Sale is listed incorrectly. The correct dates for the sale are Friday, October 10, and Saturday, October 11, at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

If you have not received a copy of these publications and would like one, please contact the Indiana Horse Racing Commission at (317) 233-3120 or request a booklet by e-mail at kroush@hrc.in.gov.
