賽馬運動馳名古今中外，其歷史淵遠流長，伴隨著投注行為，為人類史上最古老的競技運動項目與消遣娛樂之一。隨著科技發展進步、人道意識高漲及投注活動之商業化，賽馬運動之法律議題也跟著浮現。其要者包括，社會大眾對於賽馬運動產業之安全與誠信性之質疑。為使賽馬運動持續蓬勃發展，勢必須建立維護其運作秩序之相應規範架構，包括政府之公權力管制、產業內部的管理規則等，都是發展賽馬運動時不可或缺之元素。
　　本論文以美國之賽馬運動產業為研究主軸，先介紹其賽馬活動發展史與相關產業議題，首先探討藥物爭議問題，及其責任歸屬之法律議題，與美國賽馬實務之爭議方向與應對方法，其次討論與該產業運作秩序相關之組織團體與規範結構，內容包括聯邦或州際法案與協定之發展與內容，以及州境內管理機關與管理規則，並續以產業內部自律組織之規範守則為研究對象，探討賽馬運動產業內部就安全與誠信性之規範的實像。最後，對應我國馬業之現況規畫相應政策，完善法規與管理組織，並推想若我國開辦賽馬運動，於產業末端可能引發之規範問題及其解決建議。
