Frank this is a Schedule 1 in Canada and that is pretty lethal. What I was described and told this is not it. Not close. This is a healing agent for soft tissue and soreness and inflammation. Horses with issues come back more quickly. Horse rebound from races more quickly. AND more fully. And that is the key.
Chad ran two one plus year layoff runners last week, Bricks and the allowance horse on Thursday and its like yawn...But this is something that would work there after the injury.
BTW I got a late message on Thursday that Kennys horse in the Oaks was not doing well. Made another call Friday morning and was told it was not reliable, unconfirmed. Same thing a year ago when I was a received a text that he may be up to something in the first. At 10:20 AM with post time in 10 minutes while I'm in the donut shop drive thru. I later learned that came from a friend of a friend of a friend. Damned if you do damned if you don't. Sooooooo be good my friend.
