INSPECTOR 2 N J RACING COMMISSION

Horse racing and the wagering on it are licensed and policed by the New Jersey Racing Commission, and its inspectors work where the racing happens: confirming that everyone in the paddock and the backstretch holds a licence to be there, observing how horses are handled, and watching the mutuel operation take money.

Commission staff of this kind are appointed rather than examined, which is why the code carries no specification.
