A real response from /v1/owners/ow_35DVPAY?limit=3, captured by calling the live API rather than written by hand.

Response fields

Each field is described once and rendered on every endpoint that returns it, so the wording cannot drift between pages.

FieldTypeWhat it is
owner_id string Opaque owner identifier, derived from the name because the source publishes none. Two owners sharing a name are one owner here.
name string Race title as published, sponsor and all.
runs integer Rides in the slice, priced or not.
win_pct number Wins over runs. The number everyone quotes and the one that tells you least.

Errors this endpoint returns

CodeStatusWhen
unauthorized 401 No key, or one we do not recognise. Check the header name and that the key has not been rotated from your account page.
not_found 404 The identifier is well formed but nothing has it. Distinct from invalid_id, which means the identifier itself is wrong.
invalid_id 422 The prefix does not match the kind of thing the path expects, or the identifier is malformed. A horse id passed where a race is wanted lands here rather than returning the wrong race.
rate_limited 429 Past your per-minute rate. Retry-After is set, and X-RateLimit-Remaining tells you where you stand on every successful response too.
server_error 500 Ours, not yours. Every response carries a request_id; quote it and we can find the exact request.

Run it live

A real request from your browser straight to api.apihorseracing.com with your own key. Nothing is proxied and nothing is logged by this page.

Remembered in this browser so you do not paste it on every page.

What this is for

One owner: runners, wins, places, the trainers used and the horses raced.

The trainers list is the more interesting half. An owner with horses in six yards is a different proposition from one loyal to a single trainer, and it is visible here without any statistics.

Common uses

An owner page

The horses and the trainers together are the whole picture.

Tracking a large operation

Big owners run across jurisdictions. The record here spans everything we hold.
