Of course there were a lot of "first time lasix" horses 20 years ago and had plenty of data to work with back then. Now, not so much.

I've noticed a few nice hits with "second time Lasix" horses, specifically maidens and foreign relocators, as the dosage on the first run may have been a bit too light, OR the intent running first time was just to get the horse acclimated, and not a full-out intent to win.....Prices on "second timers" tend to be much higher when they hit, unless they finish ITM, first run.
