Clearly you didn't understand the point I was making, you should have just asked.

Why do you think a horse may get a different dose of lasix the next time it's used?

a) an attempt to alter performance and thus "fix" a race- decreased dose
b) an attempt to control bleeding not controlled at a lower dose- increased dose
c) an attempt to avoid unwanted side effects, ie "reactions to lasix": excessive dehydration, "thumps", colic-like symptoms, dullness- decreased dose
d) an attempt to achieve unproven effects, ie calming- increased dose
e) an attempt to improve poor performance not caused by bleeding- increased dose
f) an attempt to mitigate environmental factors, eg heat, high humidity, poor air quality
