No, sorry, it's just written so you couldn't understand what I meant. Try this:

Virtually all TB race horses suffer EIPH.
Suffering EIPH impedes performance.
Lasix attenuates EIPH very successfully.

Thus if you give a horse lasix, he doesn't suffer EIPH - Horses that don't suffer EIPH - because they get lasix - regain their performance level.

Yes, lasix improves performance in horses suffering EIPH.
If you give any performance horse lasix (outside of EIPH) does their performance improve?
No. Not at all. No, lasix is not a performance-enhancer.
