The NTRA submitted a letter to the subcommittee to inform them of the national reform effort recently undertaken by the horse racing industry to enhance the safety and integrity of our sport. The reforms, which are comprehensive and far reaching, include: 1) uniform national model medication guidelines; 2) a penalty system designed to target individuals with multiple medication violations; 3) restrictions on the use and administration of furosemide; and 4) a laboratory accreditation and quality assurance program (the “Reforms”).
