HISA video explains the Shield Indicator for eligibility

In speaking with trainers across the region, we have raised concerns that we cannot determine whether a horse has been cleared for equestrian sport or racing on the HISA portal.

HISA has released an informational video explaining the difference between the green and red signs next to a horse’s name on the portal.

• A completely green sign indicates the horse is free to run.
• A red sign means the horse cannot twitch or run.
• A sign that is green at the top and red at the bottom indicates that a horse can ride but cannot run.
