Position Overview: The Stable Gate Security is responsible for maintaining a secure environment at the racetrack's backside entrance. This includes verifying all individuals entering the premises, ensuring compliance with Wyoming Gaming Commission (WGC) regulations, and managing access control to prevent unauthorized entry. The position requires physical movement, as the gate must remain closed except when permitting access. Security must be vigilant to ensure the safety of horses, personnel, and property.

Stable Gate Security Booth Checklist

General Security Duties

☐ Ensure the gate remains closed when not actively in use.

☐ Verify all individuals entering have a valid WGC license.

☐ If a guest is present, confirm that the guest is signed in under a licensed individual (max 5 per licensee).

☐ Record the names of guests and their associated licensee in the logbook.

☐ Direct unlicensed horse haulers to the designated unloading/loading area. Unlicensed haulers must park in the designated lot in front of the old race office to load and unload horses. During training hours (7 AM – 10 AM), all horses must be loaded and unloaded in this designated area, as vehicles are not allowed to drive through the barn area. Exceptions include veterinarians, farriers, and handicapped licensees.

Horse Entry Checklist

☐ Verify that all arriving horses have the required documents:

• Current Coggins test (valid within required timeframe)
• Current Pyro test
• Current Health Certificate (not older than 30 days)

☐ If documentation is incomplete, deny entry to the horse. No exceptions.

☐ Record the arrival of each horse along with the name of the trainer receiving the horse.

☐ If after training hours, direct licensed haulers to the correct barn.

☐ Make copies of all horse-related documents for record-keeping, including a list of horses that arrived, the trainer they are assigned to (with a time punch), and copies of the Coggins test, Pyro test, and Health Certificate.

☐ Deliver all copied documents to the race office for filing with the racing secretary.

Important Notes

• Unauthorized vehicles and personnel must not enter the barn area.
• Always keep an eye on the gate to ensure it is not left open unattended.
• In case of a loose horse, keeping the gate closed is crucial to preventing an escape from the secure area.
• Be firm but professional when enforcing security protocols.
