Made a mistake and lost some time having to redo some things.
After that I had to step away from coding. Back to it today and working on parsing the Equibase XML file. The goal is to give the user an option to manually scratch or let the program use the XML file to do scratches and then let the user scratch/unscratch horses as needed. We'll see how that works out.
I am not sure yet how I want to display the scratch screen and the horses in each race. I will probably keep it simple for the first version and maybe work on improving it later.
