I love that Banamine has 2 withdrawl times depending on testing blood or urine. Like you are supposed to know which method they will use? Why not just make it 96 hours? :wf

This too was funny to me.

It should also be noted that Truesdail Laboratories, the official testing laboratory for the Indiana Horse Racing Commission (IHRC), periodically adopts or produces new methods for increased sensitivity. Trainers, owners, and veterinarians should periodically check with the IHRC, and the RMTC website to assure compliance with current medication rules and withdrawal guidelines.

Like if I called the IHRC and asked if the lab had made any adjustments they would tell me...
