Quite honestly this is interstate commerce with inter track simulcasting. Governed by Federal Law and not state,although the fed has stayed hands off here and left it to the states. I'm going to have to bone up on my law before I make my next comment on the subject, but if what you say is true Frank, then why disclose Lasix or Bute, shoe changes or other equipment change disclosures? It's to inform the betting public that changes have been made3 that may improve performance race over race.

I think there are certain medical procedures that also fit the category either positive or negative. The public I believe has a right to know. Just like enforcing the rules on medication that could enhance performance. Harness racing discloses far more infomation up front to the public than does Tbred.
