JOLY
“You know Ruff, if you are up early enough on Thursday to post your objection at 12:02, surely you could be up early enough on Saturday to make your cat scratch changes by 12:00. Your entries are always posted by early Friday afternoon, so they will only be affected by late scratches.”

WRONG
Typing a simple question is not the same as trying to check scratches
Then making the changes on the board

The problem is not with the points contest

The issue is we are NOT permitted alternates for the ROI

Therefore if one of my horses scratches I lose that ROI wager
Because being up early enough to go to Equibase
then check scratches
then see if any of them are mine
then be able to post the change on the contest board
is difficult considering I am up at 3 AM with the cat

By the time I get back to sleep I sometimes don’t wake up
Early enough to get all that done

I learned early in life it never hurts to ask
The worst thing that can happen is somebody says “NO”
