If someone pulls from the trial after pre-entry closing and there is another dog we can move in from the waitlist, the person pulling will receive a refund (see policy in premium) and the dog from the waitlist will move into the trial for the runs that became available. On event day, if there are absent handlers declared prior 7:00am on the day of the trial, waitlisted entries present can be taken to fill those spots. Refunds will be issued within 10 days of the completion of the event.
