Equine Regulatory Law, second edition examines the equine industry's most defining legal cases. This comprehensive book introduces readers to the relationship between privately-owned racetracks, state governments, and the State Racing Commissions that bridge them. Case studies serve as the foundations for explaining legal regulatory processes, such as disciplinary decisions, licensure, and rule claims, that frequently involve racing commissions nationwide. Among the cases discussed is Gary and Mary West v. The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission, a pivotal decision that protected stewards' discretion to call fouls in horse races, even when that race is the Kentucky Derby._x000D_
Author Robert L. Heleringer analyzes issues affecting every level of the modern equine industry, including the constitutionality of the "absolute insurer rule." This regulation charges the trainer for any substance found in a post-race drug screening, evaluates objections to the outcome of races declared "official," and evaluates liabilities for injuries to equine and human participants._x000D_
Expanded and updated to incorporate cases since its original publication in 2012, Heleringer's Equine Regulatory Law, second edition is the field's definitive text, standing as an indispensable resource for the industry, law professionals, and students.

Robert L. Heleringer is an attorney who served as executive director of the Kentucky Equine Education Project (KEEP) and as an adjunct instructor in the University of Louisville’s Equine Industry Studies program. He is a former racing official at Thoroughbred racetracks and was a member of the Kentucky General Assembly from 1980 to 2022.
