 Yes, you should have asked the vet to change the 
card.  The vet did not understand how the pull codes are used.  Even 
though the horse was deemed "sound enough to continue" by the vet, the reason 
that made YOU choose to pull was an issue of soundness.  "Rider option" was 
perhaps poorly named--it should have been something like "rider issue" or "rider 
incapacity" or something like that.

  “RO” is what 
  the vet put on the card.  Are you saying I should have made him change 
  the card?  I believe that this issue is currently being addressed as to 
  what the reason is for the pull -- getting a better definition of the RO 
  pulls.  Yes, it was Rider Option because the vet declared him sound 
  enough to continue.
