Racing Colours. 



100. Racing^ colours may be registered either annually, on payment of 5s., or 

 for the life of the person registering, on payment of 2 sov. 



All disputes as to the right to particular colours shall be settled by the 

 Stewards of the National Hunt Committee. 



loi. Any person running a horse in colours other than those registered in his 

 own or assumed name without a special declaration over-night to the Clerk of the 

 Course (at a time to be prescribed) shall be fined not less than i sov., nor more 

 than 10 sov. 



A special declaration is also required where the owner is not the nominator. 



Entrance Money, Stakes, Foifeits, and Arrears. 



102. Entrance money, stakes, forfeits, and arrears, must be paid in cash (if so 

 required) to the Clerk of the Course or authorised stakeholder, and entrance money 

 must (if so required) be paid at the time of entry. 



No entrance money or forfeit to any fund but that devoted to horses running 

 in the race shall exceed 5 per cent, on the added money, or value of other prize. 

 Entrance fees, subscriptions, stakes, and forfeits shall be in pounds, not guineas. 



103. A person entering is liable, as well as the nominator, and every partner 

 in the horse at the time of nomination, for the entrance money and stake or forfeit. 

 A person making a wrong nomination is equally liable. 



A subscriber to a sweepstakes is liable for the stake or forfeit ; but if he trans- 

 fer the right of entry to any other person he is liable only in case of default by the 

 transferee. 



104. A person taking an entry under another person's subscription, where 

 forfeit must be declared by a particular time shall, if he do not declare forfeit by 

 that time, be considered to have taken the engagement upon himself, and it shall 

 be transferred to his name. 



105. Every horse whose number has been exhibited shall be liable for his 

 whole stake. 



106. A rider shall not be w-eij^hed out for a race unless there have been 

 previously paid (i) any stake, forfeit, entrance money, or fee pa3'able by the 

 owner or nominator in respect of that race ; (ii) all arrears due for the horse, or 

 from his rider, or due for the same or any other horse from any person by whom 

 such horse is wholly or partly owned, or in whose name or under whose 

 subscription he is enteied ; and (iii) the jockey's fee. 



The Unpaid Forfeit List. 



107. An Unpaid Forfeit List shall be kept at the Registry Office, and shall 

 be published annually in the Sheet Calendar. It shall include all arrears which 

 have been notified by the Stakeholder of any recognised meeting in the United 

 Kingdom, or as otherwise provided under these rules, and shall state the real 

 name or names, and also the assumed name or names (if any), of the persons 

 from whom, and the horses (if any) in respect of which the same are due. 

 " Arrears " which have been so published must be paid direct to the Registry 

 Office, and until so paid shall not be removed from the list. 



108. Where a person is prevented by these rules from entering or starting a 

 horse for any race without paying arrears, for which he would not otherwise be 

 liable, he ma)% by paying the same, enter or start the horse, and place the arrears 

 on the Forfeit List as due to himself, and in like manner the seller of a horse with 

 engagements may, if compelled to pay them by the purchaser's default, place the 

 amount on the Forfeit List as due from the purchaser to himself. 



109. So long as the name of a person is in the Forfeit List, no horse can be 

 entered by him, or under his subscription, for any race, whether acting as an 

 agent or otherwise, nor can any horse be ridden by him for any race, and no 

 horse which has been entered by him, or in his name, or imder his subscription, or 

 of which he is, or was at the time of entry, wholly or partly the owner, can run 

 for any race ; and no horse which shall be proved to the satisfaction ot the
