Overall, I just think it was premature to say it will automatically be bad betting.
Here is what I know. Out of the 6 race horses that we have in racing, 4 of them couldn't compete at the lowest levels of racing, say Beulah Park, if it wasn't for Lasix.

Meanwhile, because of Lasix, we compete at levels the horse is capable of because we prevent him from being in pain, while 1000% sound.
