11 Va. Admin. Code § 10-100-210

Current through Register Vol. 41, No. 8, December 2, 2024

Section 11VAC10-100-210 - Walkover

If at post time for a stakes race, futurity or other special event, there is only one horse or horses representing only one wagering interest, then the stewards shall declare the race a walkover. However, the horse or horses shall start and complete the course before a winner is determined, but for wagering purposes, the stewards shall declare the race "no contest." For a walkover in a steeplechase race, the horse or horses shall report to the starter and gallop across the finish line, but they shall not be required to complete the course.
