The Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority and New York Racing Association are celebrating improved equine safety.

Preparations for opening day Thursday at Saratoga Race Course are underway ahead of the summer meet.

In late March, the new federal Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority implemented a universal anti-doping program for thoroughbred racing. Five days after the rollout, a judge paused the program. The program is now set to resume this month.

The new federal authority that creates safety regulations for horse racing is rolling out a uniform anti-doping program next week.

A coalition of horse racing industry leaders in New York is asking state government to approve borrowing to overhaul Belmont Park on Long Island. They say the improvements there will buoy the racing industry across the state.
