Clean Horse Racing is a national movement of veterinarians, breeders,
trainers, owners, bettors, and fans who oppose drugs in racing and favor fair
and safer competition.
If you are interested in any of these perspectives you may wish to read
the copy (below) of a letter to owners, breeders, and racing professionals, as
well as to horse lovers and horse protection activists.
-------------------------------copy of the letter from
TOBA------------------
Dear Owners and Breeders:
The Jockey Club and the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association (TOBA)
have launched an advocacy website, cleanhorseracing.org, to provide a
platform for those supporting reform of racing's drug rules. At cleanhorseracing.org, people can receive
the latest news, hear what others have to say and take action by contacting
racing regulators. You can take action now.
The New York State Racing and Wagering Board have asked for input from the
industry to assist in their consideration of changes to the rules regulating the
use of furosemide (Salix® or Lasix®).
Please click on the link below and you will have an opportunity to let your
voice be heard as New York considers possible changes to their rules.
Please add cleanhorseracing.org to your favorites
list in your web browser and check back often to receive the latest
updates.
We must attract new customers to reverse recent trends and grow
Thoroughbred racing. In survey after survey, racing's current drug rules are
most often cited as the major barrier for achieving growth.
We urge you to take action today and let's grow Thoroughbred racing in
North America.
Thank you,
Clean Horse Racing
