Bramlage also is on record declaring Lasix as a performance enhancer.
Furthermore, he has stated that pro-Lasix supporters are in the wrong because they aren't considering the bad publicity and other media and sponsorship considerations that it negatively effects.

Yes but what % of horses need it vs horses that use it becuase it is a performance enhancer and need to keep up with the jones.
Not all horses need race day lasix, they are in the vast minority.
