Th e following date system of preference is used at Kentucky Downs:
Foal certifi cates are no longer are required to be on fi le in the racing
offi ce to enter or start at Kentucky Downs; however, foal certifi cates
(2017 and older) must be on fi le to obtain a preference date and to have
a horse digitally tattooed. Foals and 2018 must assign their Digital
Foal Certifi cates to Kentucky Downs in order to obtain a preference
date. ADDITIONALLY, FOAL CERTIFICATES ON FILE AT ELLIS
PARK PRIOR TO THE END OF THE ELLIS PARK MEET WILL
HAVE A ZERO DATE AT KENTUCKY DOWNS (NO NEED TO
MOVE FOAL PAPERS FROM ELLIS TO KENTUCKY DOWNS).
Each day’s overnight will list the dates of horses in and on the also-
eligible list to enable trainers to see what dates are getting horses into
over-fi lled races.
1. 1. In over-fi lled races, preference will be given to horses in order
of their assigned preference dates, earliest date fi rst. Horses having
identical dates will be chosen by lot; however, where entry and
running dates are the same, the horse with the entry date will have
preference.
2. 2. All horses intended for racing at Kentucky Downs (who fulfi ll
the criteria below) will be assigned a preference date. A horse can
have only one date at any particular time. Dates assigned will be
of two types:
E-Date
Th is date will correspond to: (a) the date on which a horse’s foal papers/
digital foal certifi cate and name card are submitted to the Identifi er
(foal certifi cates / digital foal certifi cates must be on fi le by September
1st to receive the earliest date. Additionally, the deadline to turn in foal
papers/digital foal certifi cates to receive a date on entry day is 9:30
am CDT); (b) the day on which a horse is fi rst entered if his papers are
not on fi le with the Identifi er. To qualify for the latter E-Date, a horse
must have been excluded from a race that appears on the overnight or
he must have been entered in a condition book race that failed to fi ll
through insuffi cient entries.
DATE PREFERENCE SYSTEM
29
R-Date
Th is date will correspond to the day of a horse’s most recent race at
Kentucky Downs. An R-Date will also be assigned to a horse that
scratches.
3. A horse retains his R-Date until he receives a newer R-Date. No
horse with an established R-Date may receive an E-Date. A horse
whose papers are removed from the Identifi er’s offi ce will lose his
date and must subsequently re-establish a date in order to receive
preference. A horse with an E-Date cannot receive a newer E-Date.
Horses starting at another racetrack will forfeit any date they may
have at Kentucky Downs. Additionally, horses racing at Kentucky
Downs without foal papers on site will not retain their R-Date.
4. Preference dates are good for any type of race or distance (other
than maiden dates).
5. Maiden dates will be kept separately and will not have preference
in winners’ races.
6. No E-Date will be assigned to the second choice of an un-split
same-owner entry.
7. A horse that has been placed on a list (Veterinarian, Steward,
Starter, or Paddock Judge) will lose his date and be assigned an
R-Date corresponding to the day he is removed from the list.
8. Horses on the Also-Eligible list shall be permitted to draw into
races and will be assigned post positions in the order of their
dates, earliest dates fi rst.
9. A horse that is a scheduled starter in a canceled race will not
receive an R-Date for that race but will retain his previous date.
10. Th e draw of stake and handicap races is not subject to date
preference.
11. Preference dates are transferred through change in ownership and
changes in trainer only aft er the proper transfer procedures have
been completed through the Stewards’ Offi ce and delivered to the
Racing Secretary’s Offi ce.
12. Date preference rules will not supersede KHRC rules regarding
preference, eligibility, or scratches.
30
Horses are preferred by their available conditions in all allowance races
beginning with Graded Stakes winners (Grade I-II-III), open stakes
winners through their allowance conditions providing the horse has
fi nished 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th for $40,000 or more since starting for less
than $40,000. In allowance/optional claiming races a horse’s eligibility
cannot exceed the condition of the race. Starter races for less than
$25,000 will not be preferred.
CONDITION PREFERENCE
DIGITAL FOAL CERTIFICATES
Th e Jockey Club registry shall issue digital foal certifi cates for foals of
2018 and later. Digital certifi cates are stored on the Registry’s website
at registry.jockeyclub.com. If you are planning on running at Kentucky
Downs ask your owners to assign their 2-year-olds’ digital certifi cates
to Kentucky Downs as the Certifi cate Manager. All digital foal papers
will be treated the same as paper foal papers and must be on fi le by
Sunday, August 29, for a zero date. For horses 3-year-old and up,
continue to deliver paper certifi cates to the Kentucky Downs Racing
Offi ce Attention Horse I.D. If you have questions about digital foal
certifi cates, see the digital certifi cates FAQs at registry.jockeyclub.com
or contact the Registry offi ce via email at inquiries@ jockeyclub.com or
by phone at (800) 444-8521.

TATTOO/MICROCHIP (DIGITAL TATTOO)
As of January 1, 2020, Race Horse Identifi cation has transitioned from
lip tattooing to utilizing the Digital Tattoo (Picture Horse ID), which is
accessible through scanning of the Jockey Club-issued microchip that
has been implanted in the horse’s neck by the breeder. Th e process is
as follows:
• All foals of 2017 forward must be microchipped before the Jockey
Club will register the horse.
• Foals of 2016 and older who are not tattooed and who currently
do not a have microchip (by January 1, 2020) will need to contact
the Jockey Club (800-444-8521) to obtain a microchip. Th e Jockey
Club issued microchip must be inserted into the horse and listed
on the foal papers before the horse is digitally tattooed prior to its
fi rst race.
• Like the current tattoo system, TRPB Identifi ers will come to
your barn, scan the microchip to pull up the digital copy of the
foal papers and verify the markings prior to your being allowed
to race. Additionally, the TRPB Identifi ers will take a series of
photographs of your horse.
• Th e TRPB identifi cation fee will remain the same: $80 and must be
paid at the time services are rendered.
• PLEASE NOTE: If you have an older horse (2016 or older) that is
not tattooed and does not have a Jockey Club-issued microchip
inserted in the horse, please make arrangements prior to race day
for the horse to be microchipped and recorded with the Jockey
Club. If not, your horse will not be able to be identifi ed nor will it
be allowed to race until a Jockey Club-issued microchip has been
inserted and the horse has been identifi ed by a TRPB Identifi er.
SHOE RESTRICTIONS
Shoes with turndowns, caulks, stickers, blocks or raised toes will not be
allowed for racing on the Kentucky Downs turf course.
