BETTING RULES.1. In all bets there must be a possibility to win when the bet is made;

you cannot win when you cannot lose.2. The interests of the bets are inseparable with the interests of the

stakes, except when the winning horse is disqualified owing to a default in making stakes; or if an objection be made to the qualification of a horse on the ground of incorrect pedigree or nomination, after the race is run, the bets shall go to the horse that comes in first, provided he is of the right age, and that in other respects he has not transgressed the rules of racing; but if the owner of a horse, or a person on his behalf, succeeds by fraud or false pretences in starting hi in for a race for which he is legally disqualified, making himself liable to the penalties attaching to persons guilty of mal­practices according to the rules of racing, the bets will go with the stakes, whether any objection be made either before or after the race.

3. All double best must be considered “ play or pay.”4. Confirmed bets cannot be “ o ff” except by mutual consent, or by

incidents hereafter mentioned, viz.—First; Either of the bettors may demand stakes to be made fourteen days before the race is run, upon proving to the Committee of the rooms that he has just cause for so doing. I f ordered, the bets must be covered on the comparing day, or sufficient security offered, and a person refusing to cover shall be expelled the Subscription Room. Secondly: I f a bettor be absent on the day of running, and there is a just cause to presume that he intends to evade his engagements, a public declaration of his absence must be made in the ring, a copy of which is to be posted up at the usual place one hour before the race is appointed to be run; and in the event of no person of known respect­ability becoming responsible for his liabilities, a written notice must be given to the clerk of the course, or to the clerk of the scales, before the race is run, declaring the bet void.

5. All bets on matches or private sweepstakes, depending between any two horses shall be void if those horses become the property of the same person, or of his avowed confederate, subsequently to the bets being made.

6. Money given to have a bet laid shall not be returned, though the race be not run.

7. All bets between particular horses shall be void if neither of them win, unless agreed by the parties to the contrary.

8. I f any bet shall be made from signal or indication after the race has been determined, such bet shall be considered fraudulent and void.

9. The person who lays the odds has a right to choose a horse or the field; when a person has chosen a horse, the field is what starts against him.

10. I f odds are laid without mentioning the horse before fhe race is over, the bet must be determined by the state of the odds at the time of making it.

11. I f a match be made for any particular day in any race week, and the parties agree to change the day to any other in the same week, all bets must stand; but if the parties agree to run the race in a different week, or to make the slightest difference in the terms of the engagement, all bets made before the alteration are void.

CLU B R U L E S .

12. In the event of the stewards or committee of any race meeting run under the auspices of the A.J.C. or the Y.H.C. deeming it expedient to postpone the races from day to day or week to week, all bets thereon shall stand.

13. Bets made on horses winning any number of races within the year shall be understood as meaning between the 1st August and 31st July.

14. All bets are p.p. unless otherwise specified.15. Bets made on the course are not p.p. unless especially mentioned.16. When the riders of any horses brought out to run for any race are

called upon by the starter to take their places, all bets respecting such horses shall be “ play or pay.”

17. When horses run a dead heat for a plate or sweepstakes, and the owners agree to divide, all bets between such horses, or between either of them and the field, must be settled by the money betted being put together and divided between the parties in the same proportion as the stakes. If a bet be made on one of the horses that ran the dead heat against a beaten horse, he who backed the horse that ran the dead heat wins half his bet if his horse received half the prize; if the dead heat be the first of a double-event bet, the bet shall be divided in the same manner as in a single event. In the case of a double event, in which toe horse backed for the first race wins, and the horse backed for the second race does not start, all bets shall be “ play or pay,” unless otherwise specified at the time the bet is made.

18. That in the event of a horse or jockey being disqualified on the ground that the horse was pulled or fraudulently prevented from winning. the Committee may declare all be:s made on the course to be off in respect to such horse or on the race as they may think advisable.
