Yep, and racing dehydrated horses certainly doesn't help bring them back and run often. Lasix was supposed to be the wonder drug to help horses race more often and fill fields. I've followed the game long enough to remember all the things horsemen claimed. Hasn't happened though. It has gotten worse.

I honestly believe that most people don't see dehydration as anything more than just needing to grab a glass of water to make things better.

Like it ain't no big thing, needing to throw down a glass or two of chilly water.
