Can I cancel My Highland Kismet ticket and have #10 Amazing Catch instead? Ake. Barefoot. Dexter. Post 10 but a price. Love Ake in ALL stake finals.

If I don't hear form you Lonnie, understood. I have no problem with my original choice Highland Kismet. I'm betting the 10 though. Ake and barefoot trotter in a stake final. Likely a decent price.

Entries were closed. All good. This is fictional. 19-1 is real. I will take real money over this fictional and very enjoyable contest. Next race please.

Let's review the facts as we await, lol.  That is what this forum is about.  🙂

The deadline was 9pm, but again at every track post times could be 9pm for example, but the pools don't close until it's a fair start and the gates open.  This is again a THR management ruling that we await.

Factlaw got his selection in at 908pm.  If that counted, logic dictates your entry change should count at 952 pm as it wasn't until 955pm until entries were officially declared closed - by management.  I would think (possibly my biggest mistake lmao) in the absence of management closing entries by decree we have to revert to the rules, is the 955pm statement a guide that there was an unsaid extension or just a reminder that they already closed?  BTW and FYI the race went off exactly at 10:15 pm +18 seconds in.

Something common in racing, late scratches, I, like most of you probably like the ability to get the refund and alter the bets if the scratched horse wasn't a single.  Lastly, I post all my selections and wagers in the handicapping section always before the race goes off, most times much much earlier because in not doing so would be considered, unethical, redboarding.

Awaiting management's public decision is almost as exciting as awaiting an anticipated race outcome....It will be final, and as Mel Brooks said in History of the World Part I, "It's good to be the king!"
