Tim the only way it gets done is to give them until Sept to shape up. That's 6 months plenty of time to ween them off lasix. Then the only horses that would be allowed to get lasix would be confirmed bleeders and I wouldn't let them race until they stop. I would have every horse scoped after each race by a totally independent vet. If a trainer eel his/her bleeds after that exam the horse can be rescoped by the same vet. That will end a lot of the bs. This is why racing needs a central office and Commish. There is no reason for 95% of horses to be on lasix period.
