Columbus, OH – The U.S. Trotting Association announced Sunday (June 21) the relaunch of the USTA Integrity Tipline for industry participants to alert the organization of any concerns they have regarding integrity issues in harness racing.
The toll-free number is 833/USTATIP (833/878-2847). All callers have the option to remain anonymous or leave their contact information for a follow-up call from an investigator.“As indicated by USTA President Russell Williams in his published response to several prominent horsemen’s concerns about the care of horses and integrity in harness racing (read here), we are reestablishing our integrity tipline,” said USTA Executive Vice President and CEO Mike Tanner in making the announcement.
“With the plans for implementation of the Hanover Shoe Farms matching fund grant integrity initiative nearing announcement early next month, that could provide funding to assist with the costs of investigations for legitimate information obtained through the tipline,” added Tanner.
When contacting the USTA Integrity Tipline, callers will be asked to provide as many specific details as possible regarding the situation that are important for the USTA to be aware of including names, horses, dates and locations as well as any other circumstances.

Why is an organization, that has NOTHING to do with regulatory matters in individual states, have an integrity hotline in the first place? Furthermore, why would anyone report to an organization that has done everything they could to sweep under the rug all the dirty laundry of the industry? The USTA should just stick to doing what they do best, NOTHING!

xactly !!! the clean-up belongs w/ the state commissions. Fact is, if those dimwits would be held to a higher standard and be dismissed for poor performance .... you'd suddenly see these complicit big shot directors swing into action.
