Universal Citation: OK Admin Code 325:20-1-11

Current through Vol. 41, No. 13, March 15, 2024

(a) In the event a Jockey who is named to ride a mount in a race is unable to fulfill his/her engagement and is excused by the Stewards, the Trainer of the horse may select a substitute Jockey; or, if no substitute Jockey is available, the Stewards may scratch the horse from the race. However, the responsibility to provide a Jockey for an entered horse remains with the Trainer; and the scratching of said horse by the Stewards shall not be grounds for the refund of any nomination, sustaining, penalty payments, or entry fees.

(b) In the absence of the Trainer of the horse, the Stewards may place the horse in the temporary care of another Trainer of their selection; however, such horse may not be entered or compete in a race without the approval of the Owner and the substitute Trainer. The substitute Trainer must sign the entry card.
