    Finally, we note that at least one other jurisdiction wherein a racing association's ejectment is subject to administrative review has recognized, without addressing the issue, that the burden of proof was properly placed on a racetrack to demonstrate “that its decision to exclude ... was reasonable.” See Foxboro Harness, Inc. v. State Racing Comm'n, 42 Mass.App.Ct. 82, 86, 674 N.E.2d 1322, 1325 (1997). Based upon the foregoing analysis, we now hold that the West Virginia Racing Commission has properly established, by procedural rule promulgated at 178 W. Va.C.S.R. 6 § 4.7.d., that, “[i]n any hearing on an appeal by a permit holder of an ejection [of said permit holder] by an association, the association shall have the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that the permit holder acted improperly or engaged in behavior that is otherwise objectionable pursuant to 178 W. Va.C.S.R. 1, § 6.2. or 178 W. Va.C.S.R. 2, § 6.2.”
