My local newspaper lists entries for Hollywood Park on every racing day.
Here's a mix of how the horses are listed:
Index Horse (Jockey) Wt
6484 Gamblers Justice (Mglr) 116
(6568) River Glow (T Baze) 118
------ Tail Spin Topper (Rsr) 116
1485 Dr. Skimming (Gomez) 124
Before I call the sports editor at the San Diego Union-Tribune, does anybody know the significance of the Index Number? You can see from the example that some index numbers are listed as a blank line, some are in parethensis, all are four digits, and some repeat.
Just curious, DanH
