So the article lists all the groups that were behind the legislation, so naturally I assume the push must've had its detractors as well. Which organizations did not support this act & why? I would think uniform drug rules would be widely applauded by all, but is the feeling that this would lead to a nationwide ban on lasix, and therefore have various trainers & vets against? Or is the support of funding a more contentious issue depending on the jurisdiction?
At this rate with tracks actually working together to not have overlapping post-times & nationally uniform medication rules, maybe a national commissioner of racing or uniform rules on disqualifications are around the corner too
