BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE
SECTION 19560-19578.1
19560. No person shall, without complying with this chapter, hold or conduct, or assist, aid, or abet in holding or conducting, any meeting in this State where there is horse racing with wagering on its results. 19562. The board may prescribe rules, regulations, and conditions, consistent with the provisions of this chapter, under which all horse races with wagering on their results shall be conducted in this State. 19563. The board may adopt any rules and regulations of the United States Trotting Association, not inconsistent with this chapter, for the regulation of harness racing. 19564. The board may adopt any rules and regulations of the Pacific Coast Quarter Horse Racing Association, not inconsistent with this chapter, for the regulation of quarter horse racing. 19565. Subject to the provisions of this article, the board shall by rule provide for the registration of all California-bred horses. 19566. The official Stud Book and Registry of the American Quarter Horse Association shall be recognized as the sole official registry for quarter horses. The board shall, however, by rule provide for the registration of California-bred quarter horses to enable compliance with this chapter. 19566.5. The Stud Book of the Appaloosa Horse Club as approved by the Appaloosa Horse Club shall be recognized as the sole official registry for Appaloosa horses. The Stud Book of the Arabian Horse Registry of America, Inc. shall be recognized as the sole official registry for Arabian horses. The board shall, however, by rule provide for the registration of California-bred Appaloosa horses and Arabian horses to enable compliance with this chapter. 19566.6. The registry for registered California standardbred stallions shall be maintained by the California Horse Racing Board or its designee and shall be recognized as the sole official registry for stallions whose offspring are eligible to compete in the California Standardbred Sires Stakes Program. 19567. (a) Since the purpose of this chapter is to encourage agriculture and the breeding of horses in this state, a sum equal to 10 percent of the first money of every purse won by a California-bred horse at a horse race meeting shall be paid by the licensee conducting the meeting to the breeder of the horse. This section applies to any California-bred standardbred horse that is foaled on or after November 1, 1977, for all races, except the California standardbred sires stakes races. (b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a sum equal to 10 percent of the first and second place money of every purse won by a California-bred Arabian horse for first or second place at a horse race meeting shall be deposited with the official registering agency, pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 19617.8, and shall thereafter be distributed in accordance with subdivisions (c) to (g), inclusive, of Section 19617.8. (c) Moneys from quarter horse racing derived pursuant to this section shall be deposited with the official registering agency pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 19617.7 and shall thereafter be distributed in accordance with subdivisions (c), (d), and (e) of Section 19617.7. (d) Moneys from Appaloosa horse racing derived pursuant to this section shall be deposited with the official registering agency pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 19617.9 and shall thereafter be distributed in accordance with subdivisions (c) and (d) of Section 19617.9. (e) This section does not apply to thoroughbred horses or thoroughbred racing. 19568. (a) Every licensee conducting a horse racing meeting shall, each racing day, provide for the running of at least one race limited to California-bred horses and California-sired horses, to be known as the "California-bred race." If, however, sufficient competition cannot be had among horses of that class on any day, the race, with the consent of the board, may be eliminated for that day and a substitute race provided. (b) For thoroughbred and quarter horse racing only, the total amount distributed to horsemen and horsewomen for California-bred and California-sired stakes races, and for races featuring California-breds upon the approval of the official registering agency, from the purse account, including overnight stakes, shall be not less than 10 percent of the total amount distributed for all stakes races from the purse account, including overnight stakes races, at that meeting of the racing association licensed to conduct live racing. (c) It is the intent of the Legislature that the thoroughbred racing associations in this state, in conjunction with the official registering agency, and owners and trainers organizations meet and report to the board on the establishment of a coordinated California-bred restricted schedule of stakes races designed to showcase California-bred restricted stakes races and qualify registered California-bred horses for the California Cup and the California Cup Day races. It is also the intent of the Legislature that the report be submitted to the board annually at least 60 days prior to the start of the racing year. 19569. In order to encourage and develop the racing of quarter horses, whenever a fair conducts a program of horse races on which there is parimutuel wagering, it shall, so far as practicable, provide a program of quarter horse racing on the same days that it provides a program of other types of horse racing, if sufficient quarter horses are available to provide competition in one or more quarter horse races. Such quarter horse events may be in addition to the customary number of thoroughbred or standardbred events. 19572. The board may, by rule, provide for the exclusion or ejection from any inclosure where horse races are authorized, or from specified portions of that inclosure, of any known bookmaker, known tout, person who has been convicted of a violation of any provision of this chapter or of any law prohibiting bookmaking or any other illegal form of wagering on horseraces, or any other person whose presence in the inclosure would, in the opinion of the board, be inimical to the interests of the state or of legitimate horse racing, or both. No rule shall provide for the exclusion or ejection of any person on the ground of any characteristic listed or defined in subdivision (b) or (e) of Section 51 of the Civil Code. 19573. Any person who, pursuant to a rule of the board, is excluded or ejected from any inclosure where horse racing is authorized may apply to the board for a hearing on the question of whether the rule is applicable to him. The board shall hold the hearing either at its next regular meeting after receipt of the application at the office of the board nearest the residence of the applicant or at such other place and time as the board and the applicant may agree upon. If, upon the hearing, the board determines that the rule does not or should not apply to the applicant, it shall notify all persons licensed under Article 4 of this chapter of such determination. If the board determines that the exclusion or ejection was proper, it shall make and enter in its minutes an order to that effect. Such order shall be subject to review by any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with law. 19574. Any person who is excluded or ejected from an inclosure pursuant to a rule or rules promulgated pursuant to the provisions of Section 19572 is guilty of a misdemeanor if he thereafter enters the inclosure of any association during its horse race meeting without having first obtained a determination by the board that the rule or rules pursuant to which he was excluded or ejected does not or should not apply to him. 19576. (a) No person may furnish an audio or video recording of any quarter horse race occurring in this state to any other person either within or outside of the state for any commercial purpose, including the use of the recording in any type of video game, without first securing the consent of the racing association conducting the meeting, the organization representing horsemen and horsewomen participating in the meeting, and the board. (b) No person may use any audio or video recording of any quarter horse race occurring in this state for any commercial purpose without first securing the consent of the racing association holding the meeting, the organization representing horsemen and horsewomen participating in the meeting, and the board. (c) Any person whose consent is required under this section may file and maintain an action in superior court to obtain an injunction against the furnishing or commercial use of a recording of a quarter horse race in violation of this section. 19577. (a) (1) Any blood or urine test sample required by the board to be taken from a horse that is entered in any race shall be divided or taken in duplicate, if there is sufficient sample available after the initial test sample has been taken. The initial test sample shall be referred to as the official test sample and the secondary sample shall be referred to as the split sample. All samples immediately become and remain the property of the board. The board shall adopt regulations to ensure the security of obtaining and testing of all samples. (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to total carbon dioxide testing. The board shall adopt emergency regulations in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code) to establish policies, guidelines, and procedures that include a split sample process related to total carbon dioxide testing. These regulations shall be deemed to be an emergency and necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, or general welfare. The emergency regulations shall be submitted to the Office of Administrative Law for filing with the Secretary of State and publication in the California Code of Regulations, and shall be replaced by final, permanent regulations within 120 days of their adoption. (b) If the official test sample is found to contain a prohibited drug substance, the executive director, after consulting with and agreeing with the equine medical director that the official test sample contains a prohibited substance, shall confidentially inform the owner and trainer of those results. The owner or the trainer of the horse, upon being so informed, may request that the split sample be tested by an independent laboratory selected from a list of laboratories provided by and approved by the board. The owner or trainer of the horse shall pay the cost of testing the split sample. (c) If the split sample test results fail to confirm the finding of the prohibited drug substance found in the official test sample, a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence pursuant to Section 603 of the Evidence Code of no evidentiary prohibited drug substance in the animal shall exist for purposes of this chapter. (d) The executive director shall report to the board a finding of a prohibited drug substance in an official test sample within 24 hours of the confirmation of that prohibited drug substance in the split sample by the independent laboratory, or within 24 hours of waiver of split sample testing by the owner or trainer. Any recommendation to the board by the executive director to dismiss the matter shall be by mutual agreement with the equine medical director. The authority for the disposition of the matter shall be the responsibility of the board. (e) The executive director shall maintain responsibility for all test samples until the executive director refers the matter to the board. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and except as provided in subdivision (a), the results of the tests from the official testing laboratory, the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory and the independent laboratory shall be confidential until or unless the board files an official complaint. (f) If the owner or trainer does not request that the split sample be tested within the time limits set by the board, the owner and trainer waive all rights to that sample and the board assumes all jurisdiction over the split sample. (g) The board shall contract with the Regents of the University of California to be the primary drug testing laboratory performing the equine drug testing required by this section. 19578. (a) It is the intent of the Legislature that the board contract with the Regents of the University of California to provide equine drug testing. It is further the intent of the Legislature that to the extent that resources are available, the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory perform studies that may lead to the development of alternative or improved drug testing techniques. (b) The Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory shall be located at the University of California at Davis in order to take advantage of the expertise of the veterinary specialists at that campus' School of Veterinary Medicine. The laboratory shall be a part of the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory. Any capital outlay expenditures for the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory shall comply with Section 13332.11 of the Government Code. (c) Funds collected under Article 9.2 (commencing with Section 19605) and Article 9.5 (commencing with Section 19610) for purposes of the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory and the Center for Equine Health shall be deposited in the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory and Center for Equine Health Account in the Fair and Exposition Fund. Funds deposited in that account constitute trust funds and shall be held in trust and may be expended only for the purposes for which those funds are authorized to be expended pursuant to this section. The funds designated for the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory shall be distributed to that system and shall be used to fund the construction costs, equipment costs, and for the repayment of the principal of, interest on, and costs of issuance of, and as security, including any coverage factor, pledged to the payment of, bonds issued or other debt service or expense, including repayment of any advances made or security required by any provider of credit enhancement or liquidity for those bonds or other indebtedness, or expense of maintaining that credit enhancement or liquidity, incurred for the purpose of constructing the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory, and for the operating costs of the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory. The funds designated for the Center for Equine Health shall be distributed to the Center for Equine Health, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis. (d) Title to the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory shall vest in the Regents of the University of California. The laboratory shall be used in a manner that is consistent with Section 19577 and this section. (e) The board shall contract to provide compensation for an equine medical director who shall advise the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory and be appointed by the Dean of the School of Veterinary Medicine under applicable university hiring rules with the advice of the board. The equine medical director shall be a member of the scientific advisory committee to the Kenneth L. Maddy Equine Analytical Chemistry Laboratory, and act as the primary advisor to the board on all matters relating to medication and drug testing, the practice of veterinary medicine within the areas regulated by the board, and the health and safety of horses within the inclosure. (f) The budget for equine drug testing to be performed by the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory pursuant to Section 19577 shall be established as a permanent line item in the budget of the board.
