Installing Remotes
All remote cameras at any location must be installed prior to one half hour before post time on each day. Post times are listed below. Keith and representatives from the Jockey’s Guild will monitor the cameras and may move or remove your camera if goes past the designated line. All remotes must be on tri-pods (preferred) or mono-pods. No spikes allowed and nothing can be hung or clamped to any rail. Only black bags are permitted. Please wrap your camera bags tightly so nothing is blowing in the wind.
