Any person who is licensed pursuant to this chapter may be ejected or excluded from any racing meeting or racetrack enclosure in this state or any portion of a racing meeting or portion of a racetrack enclosure in this state if the track stewards issue a ruling that the person's participation in the racing meeting or presence at the racetrack enclosure is detrimental to the integrity of horse racing or would interfere with the orderly conduct of horse racing. A licensee may appeal the ruling to the director within five days.

If the director determines that the person's participation in the racing meeting or presence at the racetrack enclosure is detrimental to the integrity of horse racing or would interfere with the orderly conduct of horse racing, the ejection or exclusion shall remain in effect.

The commission shall make a determination within seven days after the appeal is filed. If the commission makes a determination in favor of the licensee, the licensee may return to the race meeting or racetrack enclosure.
