MINIMUM Fine: $500

MINIMUM Suspension of 30 days Redistribution of Purse

MINIMUM FINE: $50

Possible Redistribution of Purse

A copy of the Association of Racing Commissioner's International Drug Classification is contained in Volume II of the rules and is available in the State Veterinarian's Office and the Commission Office.

If said purse is paid before the disqualification, then the proper owner entitled to said purse may recover from those who had received such purse.

These names are to appear in the order of their post positions, the said post position to be designated by numerals placed at the left and in line with the names of the greyhounds in each race, and shall also be prominently displayed on each greyhound. The printed program shall contain all the information required by these rules.
3206. The Program must carry at least two (2) performances of said greyhounds at the track they are to be raced, with the exception of greyhounds qualifying under Rule #3180.
3207. All past performances as shown in the Program shall be in the order of the races or official schooling races held, the last performance appearing on the first line, etc.
3208. The Program must also contain name, color, sex, date and location of most recent races, age, established racing weight, distance, time, track record, track weight, post position and finish, name of owner and trainer, number of starts in official races and number of times finishing first, second and third, and such other information as will enable the public to properly judge the greyhound's ability.
3209. Each Franchise Holder shall print in heavy type, in conspicuous place in its printed program that the Daily Double Rules, 5010 and 5012; the Quiniela Pool Rule, 5020; the Trifecta Rule, 5030; and the Big Q Rule 5025 are posted in the mutuel areas and available at the information window, Racing Commission office, and General office.
3210. In case the name of a greyhound is changed, the new name, together with the former name, shall be published in the official entries and Program until after the greyhound has started five (5) times. The violation of any part of this Rule may be sufficient cause for a fine, suspension, or both, at the discretion of the Board of Judges.

WEIGHTS AND WEIGHING

3220.
A. All greyhounds shall be weighed in at the designated time preceding the first race of the day. All greyhounds must weigh-in with wire or plastic muzzle, collar, lead strap, and approved identification tag.
B. All greyhounds must be weighed not less thirty minutes before the time of the first race of the performance unless a later time has been designated or approved by the Board of Judges or the Commission.
C. The weigh-in time shall be limited to a 30-minute period unless an extension has been granted by the Commission Judge or approved by the Commission.
3221. At the first official schooling of each greyhound, the trainer and/or owner must establish the racing weight ("set weight") for each greyhound.
A. At first weigh-in time (pre-post weight), should there be a variation of more than two pounds either way from its established racing weight ("set weight"), the Presiding Judge or Commission Judge must order said greyhound scratched if it cannot meet the weight requirements by the close of time for the weigh-in.
B. At the "post weight" weighing, any greyhound that loses two (2) or more pounds from its "pre-post weight" while in the lock-out kennels may be allowed to race if, in the opinion of the Commission Veterinarian, such loss of weight does not impair its racing condition.
C. The Presiding Judge shall keep a greyhound "weight loser" list updated and available at all times, and shall consult with the Commission Veterinarian on a regular basis when updating said list.
3222. The established racing weight may be changed from time to time on written request and by written consent of the Paddock Judge or Scale Clerk, provided said change is made four (4) days before the greyhound is allowed to race at new weight. All greyhounds must be schooled at least once at new racing weight before being eligible for entry; if, however, the change of weight does not exceed one (1) pound, the changed weight may be listed without the greyhound being schooled.
3223. The Presiding Judge shall have the privilege of ordering the weighing of a greyhound entered in a race at any period from the time it is entered in a race until post time.
3224. Immediately after being weighed in (pre-post weight), the greyhounds shall be placed in lock-out kennels under the supervision of the Paddock Judge, and no owner or other person excepting the Paddock Judge, Commission Veterinarian, Kennel Master, Scale Clerk, Lead-Outs under the supervision of the Paddock Judge, Presiding Judge, or Commission's representative, shall be allowed in or near the lock-out kennel.
3225. Every trainer who does not have his/her greyhound(s) at the weighing-in room promptly at the time appointed shall have his/her greyhound(s) scratched and, in addition, at the discretion of the Board of Judges, the trainer may be liable for a fine.

THE RACE

3230. All starters must wear the regulation muzzle and blanket. Muzzles and blankets must be carefully examined in the paddock by the Paddock Judge before the greyhounds leave for the starting box, and again be examined before the Presiding Judge, the Commission Judge, and the Patrol Judge.
3231. All greyhounds must be exhibited in the show paddock before post time of the race in which they are entered.
3232. After the greyhounds leave the paddock on their way to the starting box, and until the race has been completed, all persons, except the Racing Officials and necessary attendants, shall be excluded from the course.
3233. No race shall be called official unless the lure is in advance of the greyhounds at all times during the race. If at any time during the race any greyhound or greyhounds touch or overtake the lure, the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall declare the race a "No Race" and all wagers shall be refunded. However, when a greyhound bolts the course or runs in the opposite direction during the running of a race and in doing so, in the opinion of the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge, does not interfere with the race in any manner, the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall declare the race "Official." The decision of the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall be final.
3234. If a race is marred by jams, spills, or racing circumstances other than accidents to the machinery while a race is being run and three (3) or more greyhounds finish, the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall declare the race finished. If less than three (3) greyhounds finish, the Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall declare the race a "No Race" and all wagers shall be refunded.
3235. If a greyhound bolts the course, it shall forfeit all rights in the race. The Presiding Judge and Commission Judge shall declare the race the same as if it were not a contender.
3236. All greyhounds ruled off of one track in Arkansas for fighting or quitting shall be ruled off all tracks under the jurisdiction of the Arkansas State Racing Commission and will not race again in Arkansas except with written consent of the Commission.

DEAD HEATS

3240. When two (2) or more greyhounds run a dead heat for first place, all prizes which first and second greyhounds would have been entitled, shall be divided equally between them; and this applies in dividing prizes whatever the number of greyhounds running in a dead heat. All greyhounds shall be deemed to be winners. Likewise, when two (2) or more greyhounds run a dead heat for second place they shall divide the second and third moneys.
3241 . When a dead heat is run for second place and the winner of the race is subsequently disqualified, the greyhounds which ran for the dead heat shall be deemed to have a dead heat for first place.

POSTPONEMENT AND CANCELLATION OF RACES

3250. If the whole or a part of a racing program is canceled, any race involved may be rescheduled at the discretion of the Commission.
3251. If the whole or a part of the racing program is canceled, any race involved may be postponed or declared off.
3252. Public notice shall be given at the earliest practicable time if a published race is declared off.
3253. No race which has closed with sufficient entries shall be declared off except by the Board of Judges.
3254. In case of fire or accident, or for other reasons, after due public notice, all races or stakes may be postponed or declared off, and when so declared off, all subscriptions and declaration money paid must be refunded.

Association of Racing Commissioners International, Inc. Uniform Classification Guidelines for Foreign Substances

Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines of Foreign Substances

The Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines was approved by the RCI Drug Testing and Quality Assurance Program Committee (now the Drug Testing Standards and Practices Program Committee) on August 26, 1991. Minor revisions to the Preamble were made by the Drug Classification subcommittee (now the Veterinary Pharmacologists Subcommittee) on September 3, 1991.

"The Uniform Classification Guidelines printed on the following pages are intended to assist stewards, hearing officers and racing commissioners in evaluating the seriousness of alleged violations of medication and prohibited substance rules in racing jurisdictions. Practicing equine veterinarians, state veterinarians, and equine pharmacologists are available and should be consulted to explain the pharmacological effects of the drugs listed in each class prior to any decisions with respect to penalities to be imposed. The ranking of drugs is based on their pharmacology, their ability to influence the outcome of a race, whether or not they have legitimate therapeutic uses in the racing horse, or other evidence that they may be used improperly. These classes of drugs are intended only as guidelines and should be employed only to assist persons adjudicating facts and opinions in understanding the seriousness of the alleged offenses. The facts of each case are always different and there may be mitigating circumstances which should always be considered. These drug classifications will be reviewed frequently and new drugs will be added when appropriate."

Notes Regarding Classification Guidelines

* Where the use of a drug is specifically permitted by a jurisdiction, then the jurisdiction's rule supersedes these penalty guidelines.

* Regulators should be aware that a laboratory report may identify a drug only by the name of its metabolite. The metabolite might not be listed here, but the parent compound may be.

* These classes of drugs are intended only as guidelines and should be employed only to assist persons adjudicating facts and opinions in understanding the seriousness of the alleged offenses.

* The facts of each case are different and there may be mitigating circumstances that should be considered.

* These drug classifications will be reviewed periodically. New drugs will be added or some drugs may be reclassified when appropriate.

Classification Criteria

The RCI Drug Classification Scheme is based on 1) pharmacology, 2) drug use patterns, and 3) the appropriateness of a drug for use in the racing horse. Categorization is decided using the following general guidelines:

* Pharmacology. Drugs that are known to be potent stimulants or depressants are placed in higher classes, while those that have (or would be expected to have) little effect on the outcome of a race are placed in lower classes.

* Drug Use Patterns.Some consideration is given to placement of drugs based on practical experience with their use and the nature of positive tests. For example, procaine positives have in the past been associated primarily with the administration of procaine penicillin, and this has been taken into consideration in the placement of procaine into Class 3 instead of Class 2 with other injectable local anesthetics.

* Appropriateness of Drug Use. Drugs that clearly are intended for use in equine therapeutics are placed in lower classes. Drugs that clearly are not intended for use in the horse are placed in higher classes, particularly if they might affect the outcome of a race. Drugs that are recognized as legitimately useful in equine therapeutics but could affect the outcome of a race are placed in the middle or higher classes.

The list includes most drugs that have been reported as detected by racing authority laboratories in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and other Association of Official Racing Chemists (AORC) laboratories, but does not include those which would seem to have no effect on the performance of the horse or drug detectability. For example, it does not include antibiotics, sulfonamides, vitamins, anthelmintics, or pangamic acid, all of which have been reported.

The list contains many drugs that have never been reported as detected. Usually, these are representatives of chemical classes that have the potential for producing an effect, and in many cases, for which at least one drug in that chemical class has been reported.

Most drugs have numerous effects, and each was judged on an individual basis. There are instances where there is a rather fine distinction between drugs in one category and those in the next. This is a reflection of a nearly continuous spectrum of effects from the most innocuous drug on the list to the drug that is the most offensive.

Classification Definitions

* Class 1: Stimulant and depressant drugs that have the highest potential to affect performance and that have no generally accepted medical use in the racing horse. Many of these agents are Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) schedule II substances. These include the following drugs and their metabolites: Opiates, opium derivatives, synthetic opioids and psychoactive drugs, amphetamines and amphetamine-like drugs as well as related drugs, including but not limited to apomorphine, nikethamide mazindol, pemoline, and pentylenetetrazol. Though not used as therapeutic agents, all DEA Schedule 1 agents are included in Class 1 because they are potent stimulant or depressant substances with psychotropic and often habituative actions.

* Class 2: Drugs that have a high potential to affect performance, but less of a potential than drugs in Class 1. These drugs are 1) not generally accepted as therapeutic agents in racing horses, or 2) they are therapeutic agents that have a high potential for abuse. Drugs in this class include: psychotropic drugs, certain nervous system and cardiovascular system stimulants, depressants, and neuromuscular blocking agents. Injectable local anesthetics are included in this class because of their high potential for abuse as nerve blocking agents.

* Class 3: Drugs that may or may not have generally accepted medical use in the racing horse, but the pharmacology of which suggests less potential to affect performance than drugs in Class 2. Drugs in this class include bronchodilators, anabolic steroids and other drugs with primary effects on the autonomic nervous system, procaine, antihistamines with sedative properties and the high-ceiling diuretics.

* Class 4: This class includes therapeutic medications that would be expected to have less potential to affect performance than those in Class 3. Drugs in this class includes less potent diuretics; corticosteroids; antihistamines and skeletal muscle relaxants without prominent central nervous system (CNS) effects; expectorants and mucolytics; hemostatics; cardiac glycosides and antiarrhythmics; topical anesthetics; antidiarrheals and mild analgesics. This class also includes the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), at concentrations greater than established limits.

* Class 5: This class includes those therapeutic medications for which concentration limits have been established by the racing jurisdictions as well as certain miscellaneous agents such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and other medications as determined by the regulatory bodies. Included specifically are agents that have very localized actions only, such as anti-ulcer drugs, and certain anti-allergic drugs. The anticoagulant drugs are also included.

* Prohibited Practices:

A) The possession and/or use of a drug, substance or medication, specified below, on the premises of a facility under the jurisdiction of the regulatory body for which a recognized analytical method has not been developed to detect and confirm the administration of such substance; or the use of which may endanger the health and welfare of the horse or endanger the safety of the rider or driver; or the use of which may adversely affect the integrity of racing:
1) Erythropoietin
2) Darbepoietin
3) Oxyglobin
4) Hemopure
B) The possession and/or use of a drug, substance, or medication on the premises of a facility under the jurisdiction of the regulatory body that has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the United States.
C) The practice, administration, or application of a treatment, procedure, therapy or method identified below, which is performed on the premises of a facility under jurisdiction of a regulatory body and which may endanger the health and welfare of the horse or endanger the safety of the rider or driver, or the use of which may adversely affect the integrity of racing:

Drug Classification Scheme

* Class 1: Opiates, opium derivatives, synthetic opioids, psychoactive drugs, amphetamines, and all DEA Schedule I substances (see http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/puds/scheduling.htmi), and many DEA Schedule II drugs. Also found in this class are drugs that are potent stimulants of the CNS. Drugs in this class have no generally accepted medical use in the racing horse and their pharmacologic potential for altering the performance of a racing horse is very high.

* Class 2: Drugs placed in this category have a high potential for affecting the outcome of a race. Most are not generally accepted as therapeutic agents in the racing horse. Many are products intended to alter consciousness or the psychic state of humans, and have no approved or indicated use in the horse. Some, such as injectable local anesthetics, have legitimate use in equine medicine, but should not be found in a racing horse. The following groups of drugs are placed in this class:

A. Opiate partial agonists, or agonist-antagonists.
B. Non-opiate psychotropic drugs. These drugs may have stimulant, depressant, analgesic or neuroleptic effects.
C. Miscellaneous drugs, which might have a stimulant effect on the CNS.
D. Drugs with prominent CNS depressant action.
E. Anti-depressant and antipsychotic drugs, with or without prominent CNS stimulatory or depressant effects.
F. Muscle blocking drugs - those that have a direct neuromuscular blocking action.
G. Local anesthetics that have a reasonable potential for use as nerve-blocking agents (except procaine).
H. Snake venoms and other biologic substances that may be used as nerve-blocking agents.

* Class 3: Drugs placed in this class may or may not have an accepted therapeutic use in the horse. Many are drugs that affect the cardiovascular, pulmonary and autonomic nervous systems. They all have the potential of affecting the performance of a racing horse. The following groups of drugs are placed in this class:

A. Drugs affecting the autonomic nervous system that do not have prominent CNS effects, but which do have prominent cardiovascular or respiratory system effects. Bronchodilators are included in this class.
B. A local anesthetic that has nerve-blocking potential but also has a high potential for producing urine residue levels from a method of use not related to the anesthetic effect of the drug (procaine).
C. Miscellaneous drugs with mild sedative action, such as the sleep-inducing antihistamines.
D. Primary vasodilating/hypotensive agents.
E. Potent diuretics affecting renal function and body fluid composition.
F. Anabolic and/or androgenic steroids and other drugs.

* Class 4: Drugs in this category comprise primarily therapeutic medications routinely used in racehorses. These may influence performance, but generally have a more limited ability to do so. Groups of drugs assigned to this category include the following:

A. Non-opiate drugs that have a mild central antipyretic effect.
B. Drugs affecting the autonomic nervous system that do not have prominent CNS, cardiovascular, or respiratory effects:
1. Drugs used solely as topical vasoconstrictors or decongestants.
2. Drugs used as gastrointestinal antispasmodics.
3. Drugs used to void the urinary bladder.
4. Drugs with a major effect on CNS vasculature or smooth muscle of visceral organs.
C. Antihistamines that do not have a significant CNS depressant effect. This does not include the H2 blocking agents, which are in Class 5.
D. Mineralocorticoid drugs.
E. Skeletal muscle relaxants.
F. Anti-inflammatory drugs. These drugs may reduce pain as a consequence of their anti-inflammatory action.
1. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). (Aspirin-like drugs).
2. Corticosteroids (glucocorticoids).
3. Miscellaneous anti-inflammatory agents.
G. Less potent diuretics.
H. Cardiac glycosides and antiarrhythmic agents.
1. Cardiac glycosides.
2. Antiarrhythmic agents (exclusive of lidocaine, bretylium, and propranolol).
3. Miscellaneous cardiotonic drugs.
I. Topical Anesthetics - agents not available in injectable formulations. J. Antidiarrheal drugs. K. Miscellaneous drugs:
1. Expectorants with little or no other pharmacologic action.
2. Stomachics.
3. Mucolytic agents.

* Class 5: Drugs in this category are therapeutic medications for which concentration limits have been established by the racing jurisdictions as well as certain miscellaneous agents. Included specifically are agents that have very localized actions only, such as anti-ulcer drugs, and certain antiallergic drugs. The anticoagulant drugs are also included.

WAGERING

3258. Each purchaser of any pari-mutuel ticket agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this and all other applicable rules and regulations of the Arkansas State Racing Commission and by the laws of the State of Arkansas pertaining to pari-mutuel wagering. Neither the Franchise Holder, Totalisator company, nor the State of Arkansas shall be liable to any person for any ticket which is not a winning ticket in accordance with the provisions of this rule, nor shall they, or any of them, be liable to any person for any pari-mutuel ticket not delivered for any reason including, but not limited to, mechanical malfunction, electronic failure, machine locking, or other cause.
3259. All pari-mutuel rules will be posted or available at the information windows of the Franchise Holder, and copies will be available at the Racing Commission office.
3260. No tickets may be sold after the Totalisator has been locked or wagering ceased. Any claim by a person that a wrong ticket has been delivered to him/her must be made before leaving the mutuel ticket window. No claim shall be considered for tickets thrown away, lost, changed, destroyed, or mutilated beyond identification. Payment of wagers will be made only on presentation of appropriate pari-mutuel tickets.
3261. Should any emergency arise in connection with the operation of the pari-mutuel department not covered by these Rules and an immediate decision is necessary, the Director of Mutuels shall make the decision.
3262.
A. If less than six (6) greyhounds start in a race, the Director of Mutuels shall be permitted to prohibit show wagering on that race;
B. If less than five (5) greyhounds start in a race, the said Director of Mutuels shall be permitted to prohibit both place and show wagering on the race; and,
C. If less than three (3) greyhounds start in a race, the said Director of Mutuels shall be permitted to prohibit wagering on that race.
3263. Wagering shall cease not later than off-time.
3265. If an error is made in posting the pay-off figures on the totalisator board, it shall be corrected promptly and only the correct amounts shall be used in the pay off, irrespective of the error on the tote board. If, because of a mechanical failure, it is impossible to promptly correct the posted pay-off, a statement shall be made over the public address system stating the facts and corrections.
3266. In the event of an irreparable breakdown of the Totalisator, or the ticket issuing machines, or both, during the wagering on a race, the wagering for that race shall be declared closed. The pay-off for that race shall be computed on the sums wagered in each pool up to the time of the breakdown.
3267. If a greyhound wins and there is no money wagered on it to win, the Win Pool shall be apportioned among the holders of the place tickets on that greyhound, if any; otherwise, among holders of the show tickets.
3268. If no money has been wagered to place on a greyhound which is placed first or second in a race, the Place Pool for that race shall be apportioned among the holders of the place tickets on the other greyhound which was placed first or second.
3269. If no money has been wagered to show on a greyhound which is placed first, second, or third in a race, the Show Pool in that race shall be apportioned among the holders of show tickets on the other greyhounds which are placed first, second, or third in that race.
3270. Any ruling of the Board of Judges with regard to the reward of purse money made after the sign "Official" has been purposely displayed by the Presiding Judge shall have no bearing on the mutuels payoff.
3271. The Director of Mutuels shall furnish a copy of the calculating sheet to the Commission.
3272. Each Franchise Holder shall, in all cases of a mutuel pool, redistribute on winning tickets not less than the face of the winning ticket, plus the minimum payoff provided by law.
3273. Payments due on all wagers shall be made in conformity with the well established practice of the Pari-Mutuel System.

MINUS POOLS

3275. In the event of a Minus Pool, the deficiency shall be absorbed by the breaks accruing for that performance. In the event the breaks accruing for that performance are not sufficient to absorb such minus pool, the remaining deficiency will be borne solely by the Franchise Holder.

Simulcast and ITW at Greyhound Racetracks

4000.Purpose.

The Commission finds that, although wagering on ITW (Inter Track Wire) races provides additional revenue for the state treasury, the primary advantage of wagering on ITW races and simulcast races is the additional revenue it provides for purse supplements for live races conducted in this state. The Commission further finds it is in the public interest to encourage live racing, which promotes economic development in a variety of racing-related industries. Therefore, it is the Commission's intent to adopt and enforce rules relating to ITW and simulcast wagering in a manner that will encourage live racing and enhance the greyhound breeding and training industries, and enhance the horse breeding, owning, and training industries.

4001.Simulcast and/or ITW License.
A. A license to operate a pari-mutuel racetrack in this state held by the Franchise Holder that has been granted live race dates includes as a part of its privileges the privilege of conducting pari-mutuel wagering on ITW races and to simulcast races conducted by the Franchise Holder. The conducting of pari-mutuel wagering on ITW races and the simulcasting of races conducted by the Franchise Holder is subject to the approval of the Commission.
B. The approval of any particular simulcasting or wagering on particular ITW races or programs is not binding on the Commission for other requests for approval of simulcasting or wagering on ITW races or programs.
C. Written approval is required for the proposed simulcasting schedule from the recognized greyhound owners' group or the recognized horsemen's group, or both as appropriate.
4002.Approval of Wagering on ITW Races. To receive approval of the

Commission for wagering on an ITW race or program, the Franchise Holder must submit a request to the Commission. In considering whether or not to approve an ITW wagering request, the Commission shall consider:

(1) the financial stability of the Franchise Holder and the effect ITW wagering will have on the economic viability of the Franchise Holder;
(2) the operating experience of the Franchise Holder;
(3) the regulatory compliance and conduct of the Franchise Holder;
(4) the impact of the Franchise Holder's proposed ITW wagering on purses at the Franchise Holder's racetrack; and
(5) the public interest that will be served by the importation of the ITW signal.
4005.ITW and Simulcasting Contracts. All contracts executed by the

Franchise Holder regarding ITW and simulcasting are subject to inspection by the Commission. The Franchise Holder shall maintain each contract regarding ITW and simulcasting for at least one year after the end of the term of the contract. The Franchise Holder shall make all contracts available to the Commission on request.

4008.Duties of Receiving Location (ITW).
A. A Franchise Holder that conducts pari-mutuel wagering on an ITW race acts as a receiving location on those dates. The receiving location shall:
1. Provide adequate communication facilities, enabling pari-mutuel data transmissions and data communications between totalisator systems of the sending racetrack and the receiving location.
2. If the receiving location participates in common pools, provide a direct telephone line and a facsimile machine, or other approved means, located in the mutuels area to transmit information to the sending racetrack in case of a system failure.
3. Display the audio and video signals of the races being simulcast to the patrons.
B. The Franchise Holder shall provide the reports of its ITW pari-mutuel operations to the Commission daily and all moneys due the State of Arkansas shall be paid to the Commission daily as provided in Arkansas Code § 23-1 11-509.
4010.Duties of Sending Racetrack (Simulcast).
A. A Franchise Holder that simulcasts races conducted by the Franchise Holder acts as a sending racetrack on the dates the races are conducted and simulcast.
B. A sending racetrack is responsible for the content of the simulcast and shall use all reasonable effort to present a simulcast which offers the viewers an exemplary depiction of the performance, a periodic display of wagering information, and continuity of programming between racing events.
C. The sending racetrack shall provide transmission equipment of acceptable broadcast quality that does not interfere with the closed circuit TV system of the receiving location. The sending racetrack must have the capability to transmit and receive wagering information via a data circuit. If the sending racetrack plans to form common pools, the racetrack shall provide a direct telephone line and a facsimile machine, or other approved means, located in the mutuels area to receive information from the receiving locations in case of a system failure.
D. Unless otherwise permitted by the Commission, a simulcast must contain in its video content:
(1) The date.
(2) A digital display of the actual time of day at the sending racetrack.
(3) The name of the sending racetrack.
(4) The number of the race being displayed.
(5) Any other relevant information available to patrons at the sending racetrack.
E. At least 15 minutes before post time for the first race, the sending racetrack must be transmitting its signal to ensure proper operation of the transmission system.
4012.Emergency Procedures.
A. If a Franchise Holder is unable to establish or to maintain the audio or video signal from the sending racetrack, the Franchise Holder shall immediately notify the sending racetrack of the lost signal and may continue to accept wagers while attempting to establish the signal.
B. If the audio or video signal cannot be established or maintained, the Franchise Holder may continue to accept wagers on the signal provided:
1. An announcement is made to the public informing them that due to technical difficulties the audio or video signal has been lost.
C. If the sending racetrack loses the ability to transmit the audio or video signal, the sending racetrack:
1. Shall notify all receiving locations of the technical difficulties being experienced.
2. May continue to accept wagers from the receiving locations on that day's races.
3. May not accept wagers from the receiving locations for subsequent race days until the technical difficulties have been corrected.
4015.Simulcast Officials. The Director of Mutuels or the Director of Mutuel's designee shall be present on the Franchise Holder's grounds at all times that the Franchise Holder is accepting wagers on ITW races.
4020.
A.Definitions. For the purposes of this Rule, the term:
1."Franchise Holder" means the holder of a franchise from the

State of Arkansas to conduct greyhound racing and who, in addition to conducting pari-mutuel wagering on greyhound races on premises, has applied for permission to conduct such wagering on greyhound races and/or horse races being conducted at any other racetrack and simultaneously televised to the premises of the Franchise Holder, and who also sends the Franchise Holder's live signal simultaneously to other racetracks.

2."Host Racing Association" means any entity which, pursuant to a license or other permission granted by the Host State, conducts greyhound or horse races.
3."Host State"means the State in which the greyhound or horse race takes place.
4."ITW" or "Inter Track Wire" means greyhound races and/or horse races conducted at another Host Racing Association which are simultaneously televised to the premises of the Franchise Holder who conducts pari-mutuel wagering on such races.
5."Simulcast" or "Simulcasting"means greyhound races conducted live at the Franchise Holder's racetrack and televised simultaneously to the premises of other racetracks where pari-mutuel wagering is conducted on such races.
B.Wagering Rules. The rules generally applicable to greyhound racing shall apply to wagering on ITW races, except where they conflict with any provisions of these ITW / Simulcasting Rules or are not applicable because of inherent differences between wagering on races run on premises and ITW races.
C.Distribution of moneys wagered:
1. The Franchise Holder shall withhold from the amount wagered those amounts specified in Arkansas Code Annotated § 23-11 1-509. However, if the percentages withheld at the Host Racing Association differ from the above percentages, the Franchise Holder may withhold the percentages of the Host Racing Association or the above percentages as the Franchise Holder elects.
2. The Franchise Holder shall pay to the state of Arkansas from the amount withheld pursuant to the provisions of sub-paragraph (1) above, the following per performance: two percent (2%) on all amounts wagered up to $350,000.00; three percent (3%) of all amounts wagered between $350,000.00 and $500,000.00; and, six percent (6%) of all amounts over $500,000.00.
3. Breaks shall be computed and disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Arkansas Code Annotated § 23-111-509.
4. After withholding the amounts specified in (1) above, the remainder of the moneys wagered shall be paid over to bettors holding winning pari-mutuel tickets as their respective interests may appear.
5. Unpresented winning tickets and the proceeds thereof shall be handled in accordance with the rules of the Arkansas Racing Commission.

COMMON POOL WAGERING

4030.General Provisions.
A. With the prior approval of the Commission, pari-mutuel pools offered by a Franchise Holder that is participating in a simulcast may be combined with corresponding wagering pools offered by the other racetracks participating in the simulcast to form a common pool.

PARI-MUTUEL WAGERING WIN POOLS

5000.
A. A win ticket is a ticket selecting the greyhound which must finish first.
B. The commission authorized by law is deducted from the sum total wagered in the win pool. The balance is called the "net pool."
C. The amount wagered on the winner is then divided into the "net pool." The quotient thus obtained is the pay-off price on the winner for each dollar wagered, and it includes the dollar wagered on the winner. Double said pay-off price to provide for a $2.00 ticket.

PLACE POOLS

5002.
A. A place ticket is a ticket selecting the greyhound which must finish first or second.
B. The commission authorized by law is deducted from the sum total wagered in the place pool. The balance is called the "net pool."
C. The sum total of the amount wagered in the place pool on the greyhounds placed first and second is deducted from the "net pool." This gives a remainder which is the profit, or winnings. The said profit is divided into two equal parts, i.e., between those who wagered, in the place pool, on the winner and those who wagered on the greyhound that was placed second.
D. Using the amount wagered in the place pool on the winner "to place" as a divisor and one-half of the profits of the place pool (as specified in B) as a dividend, the quotient thus obtained is the profit per dollar wagered in the place pool on the winner "to place."
E. In each of the above paragraphs C and D, the profit per dollar wagered is the resultant. The sums wagered on the greyhounds placed first and second must be returned therefore to the quotient the dollar taken out of the "net pool" in B. The result is the pay-off price for each dollar wagered on greyhounds placed first and second in the place pool, double said pay-off prices to provide the pay off for a $2.00 ticket.
F. In each of the above paragraphs C and D, the profit per dollar wagered is the resultant. The sums wagered on the greyhounds placed first and second must be returned, therefore add to the quotient the dollar taken out of the "net pool" in B.

SHOW POOLS

5004.
A. A show ticket is a ticket selecting the greyhound which must finish first, second or third.
B. The commission authorized by law is deducted from the sum total wagered in the "show pool." That balance is called the "net pool."
C. The sum total of the amount wagered in the show pool on the greyhounds placed first, second, and third is deducted from the "net pool." This gives a remainder which is the profit, or winnings. The said profit is divided into three equal parts, i.e., among those wagered, in the show pool, on the winner, the second greyhound, and the third greyhound.
D. Using the amount wagered in the show pool on the winner "to show" as a divisor and one-third of the profits of the show pool (as specified in B) as a dividend, the quotient thus obtained is the profit per dollar wagered in the show pool on the winner "to show."
E. Using the amount wagered in the show pool on the greyhound placed second "to show" as a divisor and one-third of the profits (as specified in B) as a dividend, the quotient thus obtained is the profit per dollar wagered in the show pool on the second greyhound "to show."
F. Using the amount wagered in the show pool on the greyhound placed third "to show" as a divisor and one-third of the profits (as specified in B) as a dividend, the quotient thus obtained is the profit per dollar in the show pool wagered on the third greyhound "to show."
G. In each of the above paragraphs C, D, and E, the profit per dollar wagered is the resultant. The sums wagered on the greyhounds placed first, second, and third must be returned, therefore add to the quotient the dollar taken out of the "net pool" in B. The result is the pay-off price for each dollar wagered on greyhounds placed first, second, and third in the show pool. Double said pay-off price to provide the pay-off for a $2.00 ticket.

DEAD HEATS

B. The commission authorized by law is deducted from the sum total wagered in the daily double pool. The balance is called the "net pool."
C. The amount wagered on the winner of the winner of the first and the winner of the second half of a Daily Double is then divided into the "net pool." The quotient thus obtained is the pay-off price on the winners of the Daily Double for each dollar wagered on the winner of the first half and winner of the second half. Double said pay-off price to provide for a $2.00 ticket.
5012.
