Sacramento, CA — The California Harness Horsemen’s Association is accepting harness racing nominations for its class of 2014 Hall of Fame until Dec. 31, 2014.

Nominations fall into one of two groups — people and horse.

People that have contributed significantly to California harness racing as a breeder, owner, trainer, or driver, and/or through organizational leadership, or people who have achieved national prominence in one of the foregoing categories and have significant California attachments will be considered.

Horses that have achieved prominence in racing or reproduction, and should have done so in California, or have been outstanding in racing or breeding and whose breeders, owners, or trainers are/or were residents of California will be given due consideration.

Nominations will be accepted electronically at this link.

In the alternative, interested parties can print out the form at the above address and mail it to the CHHA at the address on the website, www.chhaonline.com.

Nominations will be accepted through Dec. 31, 2014, and the winners will be announced at the annual CHHA meeting in the spring.

People interested in sending in a nomination, please state the reason why along with stats as to why the nominee should be considered.
