DRESS STANDARDS

Licensed persons are reminded that they are expected to maintain an appropriate level of attire at all times whilst attending race meetings regardless of whether they have a horse engaged to race. This includes suitable footwear, which provides safe and adequate protection.

Failure to adhere to these requirements may lead to action being taken by the Stewards.

The Dress Regulations for licencees are as follows:

MALE ATTIRE

• A collared shirt, long trousers, dress jeans, or tailored shorts (socks must be worn with shorts).

Shorts shall NOT be worn at meetings held on Friday and Saturday nights.

• Trainers and stablehands must wear enclosed shoes in acceptable condition (socks must be worn).
