See post #42 regarding the myth of "pedigree aspect".
When lasix is discussed, it is the horse - only - that should be considered. Not handicapping. Handicappers will have to work around whatever is decided best for the horse.
Lasix hasn't been able to mask anything via urine dilution for a long time, detection methods are too good for that.
