OWNERSHIP AND RACING qUESTION
iN YESTERDAY'S SEVENTH RACE AT BELMONT THE #6 HORSE WAS
OWNED BOTH BY KLARAVITCH STABLES AND WILLIAM H. LAWRENCE
WHILE THE #10 IS OWNED 100% BY MR. LAWRENCE.
BOTH HORSES ARE TRAINED BY DIFFERENT TRAINERS, AND INCIDENTALLY, FINISHED I/2.
SHOULDN'T THESE HORSES BE COUPLED AS AN ENTRY?

There must be a threshhold to meet the common ownership requirement. Probably a good idea, especially as partnerships become more and more popular.

I believe the rule in NY is that if there is less than 25% ownership (or maybe 10%, not quite sure) they dont have to run as a coupled entry.
It is a good rule....... Some of the biggest bettors in the country who also own horses will tell you that they make much more when their horse wins than they can make betting in a race, especially in NY.

As long as people can see the ownership in the program and the pp's I'm fine with not coupling entries with the same owner.

I don't think any horses should be coupled ever. I don't want to be sitting and waiting for a horse to run back and then i'm coupled with a horse i don't want. This happened recently at Del mar with a John Harris owned horse with one horse trained by Carla Gaines and one trained by Sean McCarthy. (i didn't want the Gaines stinker and wanted to bet the McCarthy 'longshot')
Incidentally, with this entry, they dueled each other into defeat, even though they were both owned by John Harris.
I'd much rather see Tyler Baze and Michael Baze coupled (for example) in the wagering than a horse with the same owners.
