Harrahs PA Today / Claims ?

[makingit]

All right, please don't jump on me all at once. Been a hectic day and I know I am not thinking clear. Am I reading the charts correctly, or did the owners of the horses in Race 2,  5,, and 7 just claim their own horse and get new trainers ?

[The Thorn]

No.  The ones listed are all the new owners and trainers of the horses claimed.

I am stupid !  So take the Race 5   Matters Most is listed as the winner and owned by Michael and Elizabeth Paquet and trained by Estrada.   Michael and Elizabeth Paquet claimed their own horse but it is now trained by Beir ? Why would they change trainers when he won the race for them?

[Harness racer]

It's stupid that they have been doing that lately.  Makes no sense.

All three races today do they really change trainers and barns or does it under the table stay the same?

[Deadbeat]

Maybe those trainers owned a piece and the owners didn’t want them anymore in the ownership group.

[Meadow Ford]

I am sure it is a screw up in reporting.

It's a mistake by the USTA on the chart lines.  If you go to todays program or go to a betting website that still has todays results and entries you will see that Estrada OWNED and trained the horse. Paquet claimed today and is sending the horse to Chrissy Bier. 

This is from xpress bet today.
