Yes, it is valuable info, but it belongs in the comments section, not in the earnings cell. I put "Update: xx/xx/xx" right after the foaling date in all the ones I update. If you put it in the earnings cell, it can screw up the sort functions.

Additionally, putting those "as of" things in the earnings cell clutters up the stat bar at the top of a horse's listing as it pushes the information down onto a second line (especially now with the google ads running down the side of each sheet). It's the same reason Lucy has asked that the race record not be zeroed out for Unraced horses.
