I would recommend going to your local track and asking there in the office. Im sure they would be willing to help in any way

I looked into this a while ago but for the greyhounds and the money put me off. Not worth the hassle. A trainee steward was on around $30-$40k and a senior steward was on around $60-$70k a year.

I would think they might be paid more in the thoroughbred industry.
