No. An entry is personal. You may not sell, auction, give away, swap or privately transfer an entry or race number (Entry Terms clause 2.3).
The only way to change who runs is the CMA's official substitution process (clause 8):
- It runs only within the published substitution period; dates for 2027 will be announced on official CMA channels.
- The substitute must meet every eligibility, entry and qualification requirement on their own.
- Substitutions fill available withdrawn entries regardless of the original entry type or category, not like-for-like. You can't nominate a particular person.
- The Entry Schedule sets the substitution fee and any refund to the person withdrawing. Private payments or resale outside the process are prohibited.
Giving false or misleading information about eligibility can lead to cancellation of the entry, invalidated results and a ban of up to two years (clause 3.7).
