228. Subject to sections 229, 238 and 239, where the number of horses that finish a special race is less than the number of portions of the purse, the portions of the purse that cannot be awarded are equally divided among the owners of all the horses that participated in the race; where all the horses participating in a special race are part of a single entry or where there is only one horse, the race must still be held in order for this rule to apply.
