From what I know roughly about 70% of horses run on them. About 90% of trainers use them. Yes and No

People will question it if he breaks down or not.

This is a dumb question. It's legal - has been used in horses since the late 60's and probably the bulk of his competition is also using them.

It's ok, it's only steroids once a month.

Is the general idea that this steroid doesn't enhance the athletic performance of the horse? That it is to keep the horse's attitude right, his appetite good, and keep him in training?

How could something that makes a horse eat better and makes his muscles recover better not enhance his athletic performance?

From what I understand - it probably has a better impact on geldings and fillies than colts.

Trainers will tell you that if it is administered correctly - it's no more dangerous for horses than the X-ray machine at the dentist is for humans.

I'm going by what trainers say - I'd obviously prefer everything be banned except hay, oats, and water.

There are people on here who probably know a lot more about it than I do even though I've researched it a little.

Someone on PA claims to have used Winstrol on himself....

I started to read through some of his old posts and was going to pull out one of his best and put an * next to it - however, it only proved that Winstrol doesn't improve your posting performance.

hey i'm with you. but they are legal. when i brought this up on a different thread and the race day meds . people hammered me. these horses that run here would not be able to breed in other countries. this is capitalism baby, they got to make a buck from cradle to grave on these horses. the rules right now are set up to give racing a black eye in this country. and i'm not one of those PETA morons. some of what happens is asked for !
