A California-based owner has filed an appeal of a Kentucky court decision that upheld a rule restricting where claimed horses can run.
Jerry Jamgotchian said he filed the notice of appeal on Tuesday afternoon in Franklin Circuit Court.

Jamgotchian had successfully challenged a similar rule in California several years ago.

If the rule is rescinded entries won't go down by an noticable amount. RD
