John Van de Kamp, president of the Thoroughbred Owners of California, praised Scurfield saying ''"Ralph Scurfield’s tenure on the CHRB was distinguished by dedication to duty and to his obligations, his availability, his willingness to listen, and a real commitment to the industry as a whole. His service provides a good example for others who will follow in his footsteps."''〔http://www.arci.com/newsletters%5C991203.html〕
Ken Maddy, former California State Senator said of Scurfield: ''"As chairman, Ralph came before the Legislature and pointed out what horse racing means to California economically, and he explained what the industry needed from its elected officials. He played a vital role in gaining license-fee relief for the industry. To me, his leadership role in supporting that legislation was his most significant accomplishment."''〔http://www.arci.com/newsletters%5C991203.html〕
Scurfield is currently heading the newly formed Sacramento Harness Association.
