I recently bought one for the express purpose of doing some owner research. Imagine my surprise to find they no longer have the individual owners’ records in them. Don’t owners and bettors drive this game? I’ll never learn.

Lately I have thought breeders were on a pedestal.

I think that because of all the partnerships and cross ownerships and the inconsistant way that owners names are listed it would be very hard to compile owners stats from a database. DRF loses money on the ARM as it is, and compiling owners stats by hand would be expensive.

What surprised me was that they used to have them and now they don’t. They were in that “A” section in the back right before the trainer names. I still can’t believe they’re gone.

The TB Times Almanac contains owner data.

Thanks, but it looks like they only have the leaders as well.
