As far as your second paragraph, when you said "may simply" -- I don't know about that. Like I said, I don't race in CA, but Chuck might be able to answer the question, or someone who plays and knows CA racing intimately. If not, I can easily call a trainer friend of mine. He's been bugging me to claim one out there, LOL.

I wish I remembered who/where someone told me CA is race-day bute (meaning treatment/administration). If it's just reporting, and it's still X hours/days out, OK.

I have been racing horses in California for over 20 years. There is no race day bute. The only thing you can give on race day is lasix. The rule is the same out here in California as it is in New York.
