It will be interesting to see where he chooses to go on the Derby trail. I'm not sure which tracks are members of what coalitions, but it looks like Fair Grounds allows their 2yos to receive lasix (see the Sugar Bowl entries), so I'd imagine the LeComte, Risen Star, and Louisiana Derby will do the same.
The dilemma becomes should they take him off now or keep him on until he racks up enough Derby points to get a spot in the starting gate?
At any rate, they could have probably given him "anti-lasix" for the Los Al Futurity and he'd still win over that field. They would have only needed to worry about Doc Allred cancelling the races and closing down the track...
