And in-fact the “tilt” was the cloth barrier introduced to separate the contestants

I’ve since heard the word “tilt” being used as a cloth barrier. When I worked in Anderson’s stall in the 80s they would put tilts over the rails and the stall edges when it rained. I’d never heard the word before, I’d always called them tarpaulins.
