yep, this. I did a ship and enter, and I can't undo, so will lose a Cup entry because I wasn't paying attention (my fault of course). If the order was enter-ship, that would be handy.

I agree. I think this is probably what happened to me, and why I couldn't figure out how to undo the ship. It was definitely my fault for accidentally entering a horse in a race on the wrong continent, but to be fair, the "London Stakes" really shouldn't be in Australia. It should be in London, where it won't make my brain hurt.

Undo Shipping that was initiated while entering a race now works too.

I don't know how I missed this thread and new option!

This is one thing I've been wanting for a long time. It rarely happens that I've shipped a horse to the wrong location but for me, they've been bad ships. I once shipped a 2yr old trotter to OZ, and another time I shipped a nice goober to a track in Columbia (COL) instead of Colorado (CO).

In both cases, I realized like 1.3 seconds after I hit the ship buttons what I had done.

Thanks, so much, for this Lollipop!

I've used this option so many times since it was introduced. Definitely thankful for it!
