If any of the violations in this subchapter are committed by a person driving a horse coupled as an entry in the betting or driving a horse that has a common owner(s) or common trainer with another horse in the race, the judges may set those horses sharing a common owner(s) or trainer back, if, in their opinion, the violation may have affected the finish of the race. Otherwise, penalties may be applied individually to the drivers of any entry or horse sharing common interests.
