 if a jockey be prevented from riding to the place of weighing by 

 reason of accident or illness, by which he or his horse is disabled, 

 he may walk or be carried to the scales. 152. If a horse carry more 

 than two pounds over his proper or declared weight he is disquali- 

 fied, unless the Stewards be satisfied that such excess of weight has 

 been caused by wet. 153. If a jockey does not present himself to 

 weigh in, or be short of weight, or be guilty of any fraudulent prac- 

 tice with respect to weight or weighing, or dismount before reaching 

 the scales, or touch (except accidentally) any person or thing other 

 than his own equipments before weighing in, his horse is disquali- 

 fied, unless he can satisfy the Stewards that he was justified by 

 extraordinary circumstances. 



Prizes. — 154. The value of prizes not in money must be adver- 

 tised. 155. Prizes, stakes, and forfeits in a race belong to the 

 winner, except as otherwise declared in the conditions. 156. No 

 plate or sweepstakes shall be run for unless the clear value to the 

 winner (calculated as in Rule 117), in case the race be run by two 

 or more horses, will amount to ^100. But if the value would 

 amount to ^100 if the race was so run, a horse may walk over, 

 although he thereby receives less than ^100. 157. In all races with 

 not less than five entries, the second horse shall at least save his stake 

 and entrance. 158. When a sweepstakes has been so reduced by the 

 death of subscribers that the payments to second or other horses, 

 according to conditions, would reduce the value, if run for, to less 

 than ^100, the winner shall receive a clear ;^"ioo, and only the 

 balance, if any, be divided proportionately between the other horses 

 entitled to participate in the stakes. 159. In all races, should there 

 be any surplus from entrance or subscription over the advertised 

 value, it shall be paid to the winner, unless provided by the condi- 

 tions to go to other horses in the race. A race may be declared 

 void provided the number of entries required by advertisement be 

 not obtained, but the value of a prize once advertised shall not be 

 reduced. 160. When a cup or plate or any added money is adver- 

 tised to be run for, it shall be given in the event of a walk-over. 

 When a walk-over (except after a dead-heat) is the result of arrange- 

 ment by the owners of horses engaged, neither a cup nor any portion 

 of the advertised money need be given. 161. Any money or prize 

 which by the conditions is to go to the horse placed second, or in 

 any lower place, shall, if the winner have walked over or no horse
