As the primary source of funding for RFE, the Racehorse Nomination Program allows owners to donate a percentage of a horse’s earnings to RFE. To date, more than 600 horses have been nominated to the program.
Some of the horses nominated to the program include: Colonel John, Visionaire, Street Sense, Awesome Gem, Bernardini, Bluegrass Cat, Any Given Saturday, Fleet Indian and many more.

•Horsemen’s bookkeepers make the deductions directly from the purse distributions.
•At the end of each meet RFE receives a check from each racetrack and will issue a donation receipt directly to the owners.
•The suggested contribution is 1%, although many owners are contributing 2% or more.
•Owners can nominate one of their horses, all of their horses or any number in between.
•Horses can be nominated for the duration of their ownership or just a specific meet or race.
