When winning is everything, and there's big $$ in the picture, people tend to become rather illogical in their justification of certain practices.

I agree. And I don’t believe in giving non bleeders lasix. I’ve said that many times on here. I don’t agree with the rule that all an use. I agree with the old rules where they had to be certified bleeders. Giving a horse that bleeds lasix is a diagnosed issue and should be remedied. But the industry felt in fairness all should be able to use it. Which I don’t agree with.
