Or. Admin. Code § 462-120-0070 - Stable Names

(1) The commission will not license a stable name if the Association of Racing Commissioners International (ARCI) registry shows that someone else has already registered that stable name or a name which is so similar that it could mislead the public, if the stable name is the real name of any horse owner, or the stable name is determined by the stewards to be detrimental to the best interests of racing.

(2) No owner may race under a stable name unless the stable is licensed by the commission. A person may own or have an interest in horses which race out of different stables so long as all ownership interests are disclosed in writing to the commission and the race office. A person may not use his or her real name if the person has a licensed stable name and wholly owns the horses in the stable.

(3) When applying for a stable name license, the applicant must disclose the identities of all persons having an interest in the stable.

(4) In order to change the name of a stable, without changing the ownership interest of the stable, a person must apply for a new stable name license.

(5) If a partnership with a written agreement is involved in the ownership of a stable, the partnership agreement must be in compliance with the rules covering partnerships.

(6) If a corporation is involved in the ownership of a stable, the corporation must be in compliance with the rules covering corporations.

(7) The stable name shall be carried on the official program.

(8) No individual participating as a trainer or assistant trainer at a race meet may have any interest in a stable or stable name at the same race meet except that for which he or she is the trainer or assistant trainer except with permission of the stewards (such as difference in breeds).

(9) The commission may refuse to license any stable whose name is misleading to the public or unbecoming to the sport.
