No track shall give, promise, loan or offer to any horseman any consideration or thing of value to secure the appearance of a horse or horseman at a track for the purpose of participating in racing except:

(a)purse money distributed according to the posted conditions of a race;
(b)round trip transportation of a horse, such horse’s regular driver and groom, and one ownership interest to and from a track for an international championship and a reasonable subsistence allowance for said persons during the period they are restricted from racing at another track as provided for in section 4118.9 of this Part. If such transportation and subsistence allowance are furnished by a track the cost thereof may be charged by the track, if the parties so agree, against purse winnings, except from said international championship, to the extent of said cost; provided that the track in being reimbursed does not receive more than one half of each said purse won in other races. However, such cost may not be charged against an owner for failing for good cause to enter or start such owner’s horse in any race; and
(c)awards made to drivers of horses breaking or equaling track or world records, or to leading drivers at a race meeting.
