(a) All names used that do not reveal the actual identity of the owner shall be considered a "Stable Name" and must be licensed with the Commission.
(b) When applying to race under a Stable Name the applicant must disclose the identity behind the Stable Name. If multiple ownership or a partnership is involved in the identity, the Rules covering partnerships and/or multiple ownerships must be complied with.
(c) Changes in identities must be reported immediately to and be approved by the Commission.
(d) A person cannot register more than one Stable Name at the same time, nor can he use his real name for racing purposes so long as he has a registered Stable Name.
(e) Any person who has been registered under a Stable Name may cancel it after he has given written notarized notice to the Commission.
(f) A person cannot register as his Stable Name one which has been registered by any other person with an Association conducting a recognized meeting, with the Jockey Club of New York, or with another racing authority.
(g) A person may not register as his Stable Name one which is the real name of any owners of race horses nor one which is the real name of any prominent person not owning race horses.

(i) A Stable Name shall be plainly distinguishable from that of another registered Stable Name. When appearing on the program, the Stable Name must be accompanied by the legal name of the owner. If the Stable Name has more than one owner, one legal name of an owner must appear followed by the term "et al".
(j) A corporate name shall be considered a Stable Name for the purposes of these Rules, but the Commission reserves the right to refuse any corporation the privileges of registering a Stable Name or racing as a corporation unless Section 7 of these rules are complied with.
(k) If more then one (1) person races with a Stable Name registered as the owner, an authorized agent shall be appointed and he shall transact all business.
