KyHBPA President Dale Romans’ statement on HISA’s Lasix decision

“Kentucky HBPA commends the collaborative efforts of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority, its advisory committees, and horsemen across the industry in reaching this thoughtful decision regarding furosemide. This outcome reflects a balanced, science-based approach that prioritizes the health and safety of our horses while maintaining the integrity of the sport. We appreciate the willingness of all parties to engage in meaningful dialogue and work together toward a solution that supports horsemen and strengthens public confidence in racing. It is through this kind of cooperation that our industry continues to move forward in a responsible and unified manner.”
