You? You're a rude guy on the internet. You're entitled to an opinion on race day medications, but when you start saying false things about lasix to advance an agenda, I call bullsh.i.at. on the lasix lies. Because, yes, I know far more about lasix than you do.
The question is do you think using therapeutic medications that help protect the lungs of race horses should continue to be allowed?
You say no. Good luck with that. I'll fight you and your ilk every step of the way.

You are more qualified than most to discuss the efficacy of lasix in preventing and/or lessening bleeding.
I've been in the business for 29 years as a bettor, owner, and racing manager. I talk to trainers every day. I talk to vets all the time. I look at our horses several times a week. I've been directly involved with close to 100 horses over the years. Do I know as much about lasix as you? Of course not. But I know enough about it and enough about all aspects of the business to have an informed opinion on the issue.
My opinion isn't necessarily right but it is at least an informed opinion.
You say I'm a "rude guy on the internet". I've posted on this board for several years and I think at least 95% of the posters would disagree with you. I think most people would tell you that I am one of the most polite people on this board.
