number of entries for an event

[toothman]

how can i find out how many horses were entered for a particular event on the condition sheet?
would the race office tell me?

The draw sheet is posted at the race office.
The draw sheet will show all horses entered with their last race date.
I think all race offices would tell you that information.

They did it years ago.  Some draw sheets posted the fields and number of horses entered.

Do they do it today?  Probably not.
