Nominees will automatically remain under consideration for three consecutive AGMs, if not selected.
If selected for the Hall of Fame, the owner of the nominated horse, along with the nominator, will be notified prior to the AGM.
In addition to the normal nomination process, there are two other means by which an individual can be placed on the Hall of Fame ballot.
- 1. A list of past individuals who were influential to the growth of the association will be drawn to ensure that older deserving individuals are not forgotten. The BOD will review the list each year and may select candidates to be placed on the ballot.

- Notable National Champions and multi Honour Roll High Point recipients.
