Full text
173. As soon as the starting judge gives the official signal for the start of a race, a recall may not be ordered and the horses are then deemed to have started in the race; they must run the length of the race except where a horse is justified in stopping because of an accident, interference or broken equipment.
Where equipment breaks, the driver of the horse must have it checked by the paddock judge as soon as the race is finished.
Decision 96-07-24, s. 173.
