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.
They are called assistant starters.
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.
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.

From the get-go or when both burst out of the starting gate, absolutely!!
To achieve a fast start in BMX racing, focus on mastering your gate technique. Position yourself properly in the gate, with your pedals in a power position and your weight slightly forward. As the gate drops, explode out with maximum power, using your legs and arms to drive forward while keeping your bike steady. Practice your timing and reaction to the gate drop to improve your overall launch speed.
