Unruly horse rules differ
It appears two cases are shown for unruly horses under the rules of racing, depending on whether they are starting from standing or mobile starts. The rule for standing starts states: “If there are other horses on the second line the horse (or horses) so declared unruly shall start on the extreme outside of the second line and clear of the front and second-line horses.” But for mobiles the rule states: “In the case of a mobile start, horses declared unruly shall start from the outside of the front line or where there are two lines, from the outside of the second line.”
