If a horse is bought & brought from another country & it will make its U.S. debut @ DelMar, it has to go in quarantine first, right? If so, how many days would that be?

Thanks

You can check online; maybe with the USDA.

Thanks Ken; I found the answers there:

The question arose when I was looking @ the pp's for Del Mar's 7th tomorrow.

I didn't see any works listed for Sleepless Joy...I wonder if they were left off by mistake; maybe I should pursue that. Maybe there were none, maybe they were out of this country.

Is that DNF its last race? If so, seems like the track may require a work. Go to the DM site, email PR type MaryS. She will know.
Just from a quick glance at the PP's, I noticed Laura's in the race. Good horse. But of course they all are!

Thanks Ken, when I get a response from her I'll post. As a side note, Laura's Lucky Boy & Qsar are the two I'm focusing on.

Haven't heard anything, so I'll let it go.

Records of Foreign and Imported Horses.
Rule Text The owner of any horse which has not previously raced at a recognized meeting in the UnitedStates or which has raced elsewhere, must furnish to the racing secretary prior to the entry ofsuch horse to any race in this State, performance records of said horse's races during the pastyear showing where and when said horse did race, the distance, weight carried and said horse'sfinishing position and time. If such records are incomplete or unavailable, the owner or hisrepresentatives must submit an affidavit to such effect to the racing secretary. If such recordsor affidavit are not submitted, such horse shall be ineligible to start unless approval is firstobtained from the Board.

No workout requirement listed, so most likely none needed. I think owrkouts are only reqired of USA horses if on Steward's list for acting up.
