Short Summary
The provided legal document governs the entries, starts, declarations, and scratches in purse races. It applies to trainers and owners of horses participating in purse races. The document specifies that no horse may start whose name and true ownership is not registered with the racing secretary. Additionally, a horse must be eligible at the time of starting a race. The document also states that the holder of a claim against a horse must file the claim with the racing secretary before the horse is entered, or else they forfeit their rights in the horse’s winnings. The racing officials may require proof of ownership or interest in a horse, and if proof is not given to their satisfaction, the horse may be declared out of the race. The document also requires that the entry of a horse must be in the name of its true owner, and a person must own an interest greater than or equal to the interest held by each other individual owner to enter a horse as an owner. Furthermore, the document specifies that no horse may enter or start in a race unless it is registered and named with the appropriate registry office, and the certificate of registration is on file with the racing secretary. However, exceptions may be made for horses that have been shipped to a track for a special race and have been racing at another recognized meeting. The document does not mention any specific penalties for non-compliance or violation of its provisions.
