Section 71IAC7-1-4. Entry in name of all owners and proof of ownership

   (a) Every entry must be in the name of a person having an ownership interest in the horse and must be made in writing by such owner, his or her trainer, or by the authorized agent of either. The full name of every person having any ownership in a horse or any interest in its winnings must be recorded with the racing secretary before the horse starts at any meeting.

  (b) The judges may call upon any person making entry to prove the extent of his or her interest in the horse or its winnings or to give proof that the horse entered is not the property, wholly or in part, of any person who is disqualified. If unsatisfied with the proof tendered, the judges may declare the horse out of the race.

  (c) The judges may penalize any failure to comply with this rule and may disqualify any horse which races after being entered in violation of this rule.
