The response: Raceday meds - including Lasix - are now banned, among other measures taken. The Stronach Group issued a press release about an hour ago discussing it. This also applies to Golden Gate. I’d imagine that Gulfstream and Maryland will be next. Del Mar also considering these measures.
I guess reading between the lines, they are certain that the soundness of horses is mostly to blame. It will be interesting to see what this does to racing at these tracks. I wouldn’t be surprised if a horse shortage is in order shortly. The big story will be Breeders’ Cup this fall.
