Then, go back and select the horses that will be attending the show and stabling with Trainer B.
When you create an entry form, you will designate the owner, trainer and riders by selecting them from your My People list. If the person you want to enter is not listed, you need to add it to your My People list. Go to “People” and either add the person to the system, or search for it and save it to your My People list. Check the appropriate boxes to list the person as an owner, trainer and/or rider.
