Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 23, 2019 Journalists Share Posted July 23, 2019 The newly revised Rules of Racing, effective Sept. 1, are now available online, the British Horseracing Authority announced on Tuesday. Feedback from a cross-industry working group has been incorporated into the new Rules, which are now easier to understand for both participants and the wider public. Workshops will be available to industry participants to familiarize themselves with the new Rules, and any further amendments that will be introduced. Several notable changes which have been approved by stakeholders, the Rules committee and the BHA Board are as follows: A simplification of the inside information provisions that prohibits the passing of inside information outside of those who own, train or care for the horse even without reward or benefit in kind Certain requirements in the new Horse Welfare and Management Manual are now on the Responsible Person rather than just the Trainer The requirement to carry speed sensing devices is now included as a Rule, rather than being printed in individual race conditions. Devices must therefore be worn whenever provided by the racecourse on race day. Any new rules will be announced separately.
