Can I collect race information from participants in Massachusetts? What are the requirements?

To collect race information from participants in Massachusetts, you must comply with the regulations set forth by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. According to 205 CMR 3.14, certain individuals involved in horse racing in Massachusetts are required to obtain a license from the Commission and pay an annual fee. These individuals include Drivers, Trainers, Owners, Authorized Agents, Stable Employees, Veterinarians, Blacksmiths, Vendors, and Racing Officials. To obtain a license, individuals must submit an application to the Commission on forms supplied by the Commission. The Stewards may require the applicant, as well as the endorsers, to appear before them and show that the applicant is qualified in every respect to receive the license requested. Ability as well as integrity must be clearly shown by the applicant in order to receive the Stewards’ recommendation for the granting of the license.

Additionally, Massachusetts Supplemental Form A PHD-MA-SUPP shall be submitted by each category 1 and category 2 license qualifier in a format prescribed by the commission and may require the qualifier to provide the following information and such additional information as the commission may, in its discretion, determine. This includes name, date of birth, physical description, current address, social security number, citizenship, and resident alien status.
