The language in KHRC rules on how the beta is administered are very broad. Once the drug is found in the horse's body, it should be a done deal. Betamethasone listed under class c medication violations doesn't differentiate between types of beta nor would it make sense to do so as they would all contain the active ingredient which acts as an anti-inflammatory or painkiller and KHRC doesn't want it in the horse's system on race day.
