STANDARD CONDITIONS 1. The Racing Calendar Office of Weatherbys Ltd. receives entries submitted for acceptance as agent for the Racecourse Authority and only upon the terms of the Standard Conditions. Acceptance of entries is subject to the power to refuse to allow entries to be accepted conferred by the Rules of Racing on the British Horseracing Authority Ltd. Entries are accepted by the Racing Calendar Office, acting as aforesaid, causing the name of the horse in question to be published as being entered for the race in question either in The Racing Calendar, when the race closes more than six days before running, or, for other races, on the British Horseracing Authority Racing Administration Internet site (www2.racingadmin.co.uk) and ordinarily in the Sporting Press. 2. The Standard Conditions subject to which every entry is submitted for acceptance are as follows:(a) The Owner (which expression shall in these Conditions include the Owner, as defined in the Rules of Racing, or any person in any way legally interested in the horse in question and his or their authorised agent) subjects himself in all respects to the Rules of Racing in force from time to time (and in respect of racing run outside of Great Britain, to the Rules in force where so run). (b) Neither:(i) the owners, the occupiers, the manager or the executive of the Racecourse to which the Entry relates (each and all of whom are herein collectively described as “the Racecourse Authority”) nor (ii) any servant, agent or independent contractor (including Weatherbys Ltd., Weatherbys Bank Ltd. and RaceTech Limited and their respective servants and agents) of the Racecourse Authority (each and all of whom are herein collectively described as “Racecourse Employees”) nor (iii) the Stewards of the meeting or any of the officials appointed for the meeting by the British Horseracing Authority Ltd. (each and all of whom are collectively referred to herein as “Officials”) shall in any circumstances whatsoever, including but not limited to the negligence of either the Racecourse Authority, Racecourse Employees or the Officials, be under any liability whatsoever to the Owner for any loss, injury, damage or delay of whatsoever kind suffered by or in respect of or in connection with any entered horse either at the Racecourse or at premises belonging to or occupied by the Racecourse Authority or elsewhere arising or resulting or indirectly from any act, neglect or default on the part of the Racecourse Authority or any Racecourse Employee or any Official and the Owner agrees not to sue any of the said Racecourse Authority, Racecourse Employees or Officials for or in respect of any such loss, injury, damage or delay. Always provided that nothing in this paragraph shall exclude liability for death or personal injury resulting from the negligence of either the Racecourse Authority, Racecourse Employees or the Officials. (c) The Racecourse Authority is or shall be deemed to be acting as agent or trustee on behalf of and for the benefit of all persons who are or might be from time to time Racecourse Employees or Officials and all such persons shall to this extent be or be deemed to be parties to the contract contained in or evidenced by this Entry. (d) In the event of the Directors of the British Horseracing Authority Ltd. in exercise of the powers conferred upon them by the Rules of Racing ordering the transfer to another racecourse of the race meeting to which the entry relates the entry is to be treated as a valid entry for the race at that other racecourse. Furthermore in the aforesaid event the benefit of these conditions is deemed to be assigned to the Racecourse Authority of the racecourse where the race meeting is held and the definitions and terms contained in (b) and (c) are to be read and construed as applying to the Racecourse Authority, Racecourse Employees and Officials of such racecourses. PRIZE MONEY The owners of winning and placed horses will receive prize money from two different sources viz:1. Each owner entering to run in a race will be liable to contribute an amount of stake money (his “Stake”) into a pool which will be held by the Stakeholder. There will be a separate pool of money for each race. When the race has been run and not voided the money in the pool will be divided up and distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Stakes and Prize Money Code. In the event of the race being voided all Stakes contributed prior to the race will be returned. NOTE: Contribution of a Stake is not payment to a Racecourse and does not arise under or as part of the contract between an Owner and a Racecourse concerning the running of a horse in a race at the Racecourse. In the event of the provisions of paragraph 17 of the Stakes and Prize Money Code becoming effective, in all cases the total stake money contributed to a race by Owners shall be paid to the remaining recipients specified under the Stakes and Prize Money Code. 2. Racecourses assemble funds from various other sources to create added money (“Money Added to Stakes”) which is also distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Stakes and Prize Money Code. Where the word “Stakes” is used in the conditions of a race advertised in The Racing Calendar or on the Racing Administration Internet site, it means the Owners Prize Money Pool as defined by the British Horseracing Authority in the Rules of Racing.
