Subpart 1.

Preferred list.

The racing secretary shall keep a list of all horses excluded from races because of too many entries, and such horses are to have preference in any race in which they may afterwards be entered in accordance with the rules adopted by the racing secretary for the meeting and approved by the stewards.

The second part of an entry shall receive preference over an "in-today" on the also eligible list in case the race overfills.

Subp. 4.

No horse's name shall be placed on the preferred list and all preference shall be forfeited if the owner did not accept, when presented, the opportunity of starting.
