A hero is a person who is admired for courage, outstanding achievements, and noble qualities.  There are heroes throughout the horse racing industry and the Race Track Chaplaincy of America (RTCA) recognizes these selfless servants annually through its RTCA White Horse Award.

The RTCA White Horse Award is presented to an individual(s) of any age who has performed a heroic act on behalf of human or horse within the past 12 months. 

Here is a video of last year's White Horse Award recipient. To submit a nomination for this year's award, please click here!

Deadline to submit nominations is Wednesday, August 24th.
