In the case of a horse owned by a corporation, all owners, officers, shareholders, and directors shall meet the requirements of a New York state resident; in the case of a horse owned by an association, all owners shall meet the requirements of a New York state resident.

(c) If it is in the opinion of such corporation or association licensed to conduct harness race meetings at which pari-mutuel betting is permitted that sufficient competition cannot be had among such restricted class of horses, said race may be eliminated for said day and a substitute race provided instead.

(d) The commission shall be authorized to promulgate regulations to effectuate the intent of this section.
