Overriding preference (that trumps anything) is called a "Z" date at Mountaineer. Z dates are allotted only in special circumstances unrelated to a preference system. Runners in-to-go on cancelled cards, for instance, get z dates, as do horses excluded due to office mistakes.

Only a preference clause written into the header supersedes the z.

Pertaining to date systems,-and they do vary, sometimes considerably, from track to track-I'm not a fan of "stars." But I'll be typing all night if I start expounding on that topic-or date systems in general. And I've designed several.
