Section 260-40-160 - Horse owned or managed by disqualified person(1) A horse may not be entered or start in any race, if owned in whole or in part, or if under the management, directly or indirectly, of a disqualified person.(2) An entry from a disqualified person or for a disqualified horse must be deemed void and any fees paid must be paid to the winner.(3) A horse is ineligible to start in a race when it is wholly or partially owned by the spouse of a disqualified person or a horse is under the direct or indirect management of the spouse of a disqualified person. In such cases, it is presumed that the disqualified person and spouse constitute a single financial entity with respect to the horse.
