No horse may compete while owned or controlled wholly or in part by a suspended, expelled, disqualified, or excluded person. No entry in any race shall be accepted for a horse owned wholly or in part, or trained by, a person whose spouse is under license suspension at the time of entry. However, if the person's spouse has a driver's license that has been suspended for a routine driving offense, the judges may accept entry of the horse.
An entry made by or for a person or of a horse suspended, expelled, or disqualified, shall be held liable for the entrance fee thus contracted without the right to compete unless the penalty is removed. A suspended, disqualified or excluded person who shall perform in a race shall be penalized. No person or horse may compete while under suspension, disqualified or excluded; however, a declaration may be filed for a person or horse under suspension, disqualified or excluded so long as the race will not be held until that suspension, disqualification or exclusion is terminated.
