In reading California Racing Board minutes they list out all vet scratches, and it gets mentioned if it was a scratch sick or injury. Are there any other jurisdictions that have this type of information available? I think this would be a nice addition, especially for NYRA tracks. Believe there was one race yesterday with 6 vet scratches, am I to assume there's a virus going on to more places than just the Pletcher barn, or are half the trainers in a race trying to bring over unsound horses. Would be a nice extra tidbit of info to have, it's helped on occasion in California when waiting for some of those scratches to come back.

Thanks a lot for that list! Wish it were sortable by date as well, but it's better than nothing.
