Patternform

Can non-runners be removed from the Patternform racecards?
If it is not possible to remove a non-runner then would I be correct to assume that where a non- runner tops the list then I should ignore it and treat the next runner as the best rated?
Many thanks,
Porky

No a non-runner cannot be removed.
Yes ignore non-runner (they won't be winning anything!)

Thanks for the reply, love the touch of levity.
My concern was that not being able to remove a non-runner might bugger-up all the other stats.
Presumably not so.
Porky.

All the stats are "runner-centric", not "race-centric"
