Every licensed harness race track shall cause a record to be kept showing the tattoo number, equipment, shoes and harness customarily worn by each horse competing at the track. The equipment, shoes and harness worn by every horse in every night's program, its hopple lengths and tattoo number, shall be checked in the paddock before each race against such record and all changes from the previous start shall be noted thereon, and the presiding judge notified. Any such changes shall be posted by the track on an information commission for such purpose in the public area of the track.
