Yes, that is exactly right. The rules are pretty much the same now in most states if not every state. They are allowed to get bute the day before the race. As you said, I have no idea why they denote it differently in the Racing Form for certain states. The rules with regard to bute are the same in California, New York, Kentucky, etc.
