71 IAC 7.5-1-15 No change permitted

Sec. 15. (a) The conditions for eligibility to a race may not be changed once entries are taken except that an error may be corrected with the consent of the stewards. (b) No change in trainers of a horse, entered and drawn to start, will be permitted. In the event of such change, the horse will be scratched and the parties responsible therefore shall be subject to fine or suspension. A change in ownership may be permitted with the approval of the stewards. (c) No owner shall list as the trainer of a horse a person who is not in fact the trainer of such horse, and no trainer shall allow his or her name to be shown on the declaration form nor the official program as trainer of a horse which he or she does not in fact have under his or her care and supervision as trainer of the horse. The stewards may require proof that a person listed as the trainer of a horse is in fact the actual trainer of that horse.
