The starting gate.
The horses are called from the paddock to the starting gate
Do you mean the starting gate? It is like a loading stall. The groom leads the horse in, with the jockey mounted, then the groom closes the gate. There the horse waits for the starting gate to swing open. Things trainers hate are when a horse leans on the back or front gate. This can set the jockey of balance.
My horse sprained her ankle, coming out of the gate.
There is Golden Gate Fields, which is a horse racing track, but that is in Oakland, which is not far from San Francisco.
When a horse is scratched, the horses in the race do not physically shift towards the rail. The remaining horses maintain their positions in the starting gate and continue to run the race as usual.

They are called assistant starters.
No one knows if there really is a gate to the next dimension. This topic has been in the realm of science fiction for many decades. Some think the gate to the next dimension is through a wormhole or black hole.
From the get-go or when both burst out of the starting gate, absolutely!!
a start is when the horses break from the gate. when the bell rings and the doors open and they "start" running...that is called a start.
