Question
Where do i go to obtain my papers to become a licensed horse trainer?

Answer
well ,you just don't go to get your trainers license. it is not that easy . you must first pass a few tests given by the race track you are at.  the HBPA  office would have the info you need to obtain your trainers license. you will have to have at least 3 licensed trainers sign for you to assure you know what you are doing in the horse buisness. hope this helps you  thanks ED HESS

Have trained thoroughbreds for 30 odd years. Have been a licensed trainer for that long of time. I continue to train my race horses and thoroughly enjoy every day.

Experience


Experience: Licensed trainer for over 30 yrs. Have had lots of winners in all different types of races - from bottom claimers to top quality stakes winners. My best money winner was Aristocratic Cross (multiple stakes winner). My best claiming horse was Navajo Family, winner of 12 races in one year. I still enjoy racing a modest stable of horses each year.
