mullins should be the one to reimburse. if not for his stupidity, the horse could have and would have run.

is it standard procedure to reimburse when there's a scratch, regardless of the reason why?

I could see refunding the start fee, but entry and nomination fee, that's a crock.

The only time that we have received entry fees back was on an occasion where we entered a horse in a turf stake, and he was on the AEs and did not draw into the race.
