association or fair is conducting a race meeting, without the consent
of the participating horsemen's  and horsewomen's 
organization. These imported races are subject to specified
conditions, including the condition that a thoroughbred  racing
 association or fair may not accept wagers on out-of-country
races commencing after 5:30 p.m., Pacific standard time, without the
