Current through all regulations passed and filed through March 18, 2024

At the conclusion of any handicap, stake or sweepstakes race, upon pulling up after a race, each jockey shall return to the place of weighing, in public view or adjacent to the winners circle, and there dismount, but not before permission to do so has been asked and obtained of the stewards, and be weighed in by the clerk of scales. If a jockey's horse is in such condition that he/she cannot ride it to the scales, or if he/she is ill or injured, he/she may walk or may be carried to the scales, or he/she may be excused by the stewards from weighing in. In all races other than a stake or handicap race, the stewards may declare the race official prior to the time that each jockey weighs in. However, each jockey shall still be required to weigh in immediately after dismounting.
