8. Does the ownership data recorded with the assignment of a Digital Certificate prove title to the horse?

No. The Jockey Club is a pedigree registry for Thoroughbred horses, not an ownership or title registry. Accordingly, any information presented by The Jockey Club concerning the "owner" of a horse is based solely upon information provided by others and is in no way warranted or otherwise offered by The Jockey Club as being a representation of who the actual owner or title holder of a particular Thoroughbred is.
