Nominations are now open for OwnerView's 2024 “New Owner of the Year” Award, sponsored by 1/ST RACING. The award, which honors a new Thoroughbred owner who has been successful in the sport and has had a positive impact on the industry, has previously gone to names such as Jim and Dana Bernhard, Alexander Bregman, and MyRacehorse.
To qualify, nominees must have made their first start as a Thoroughbred owner in the past four years (since 2021), had an ownership stake in a horse at the time it won a stakes race in the past 12 months, and had a verifiable owner license in 2024. Thoroughbred performance as well as a nominee's promotion of the sport will be considered.
Anyone, including current owners, can nominate an owner who meets the criteria for the award. A selection committee will choose the winner.
To submit a nomination, please contact Gary Falter for a nomination form at 859-224-2803 or email him. The deadline to receive nominations is November 4.
