And I'm saying that making any judgement based on the results of one race of Cal bred 2 yo's is insane. No one is saying that lasix is 100% effective or is some wonder drug. However unfortunately it is the best option that we have at this point.

If you want to take something negative out of the "study" consider that 45% of the horses scoped showed some signs of EIPH with or without lasix.
