The horses shall be deemed to have started when the word “go” is given by the starter and all the horses must go the course except, if in the opinion of the judges, one or more horses should be deemed non-starters to protect the wagering public due to an unfair start or a no contest is called.

(a)In the case of a non-starter, the horse or horses shall run for purse only. The line in the program will be designated accordingly, noting that all wagers were refunded for the horse or horses deemed non-starters by the word "Refund" being included in the horses line in the program in the "Odds" section.
(b)A race may be deemed a no contest, if in the opinion of the judges, it is impossible to go the course fairly due to interference before the start, an accident or malfunction of the starting gate. If a race is declared a no contest, all wagers will be refunded. The purse shall be divided equally among all participants in an overnight race. For other than overnight races, the provisions as set forth by the track shall apply.
