115. The order of the horses that finished in a dead heat in the first position of a two in three race, and the order of all the horses in a special race the conditions of participation of which provide for the use of the consolidated result are established as follows:

(1)  a horse that finished first in a heat is ranked better than a horse that finished second in 2 heats or more, and so on;

(2)  a horse that is the only horse to finish in a given rank in a heat is ranked better than a horse that finished in the same rank but in a dead heat in another heat.

Where there is still a dead heat, priority is given to the horse that is ranked better in a heat of the race with the longest course and if there is still a dead heat, to the horse that ran fastest for the same rank in one of the heats.

Where there is still a dead heat, the horses are considered to have finished the race in a dead heat.
