Oh I understand that it is the trainer's responsibility. I am not saying that he should not be fined. Just stating that it could have been a new groom that doesn't know the horses that well and grabbed the wrong one, etc...

It could have been a numerous amount of things. We shouldn't judge the trainer on a simple mistake. I don't think he was doing it to run the wrong horse if that is what this thread was asking. I just think it was a mistake.

Honest mistake or not, it's pretty shabby management. What's interesting to me is that when this was first reported, it was stated that the horse in question was the current favorite, and that the "wrong" horse was an unraced filly without a lip tattoo.
