The Grupo Bolanos Gran Canarias colorbearer, who became the first Spanish-based horse to contest a British Classic when running credibly to finish sixth in the G1 2000 Guineas when last seen May 3, pleased trainer Enrique Leon with his move over the good-to-firm ground.

Call for Cooperation as Summit Opens (cont. from p1) AOne of the great disservices I did for many years as a regulatory veterinarian after a horse was fatally injured was walk up to the trainer and say, >Man, I am really sorry,= and then walk away,@ said Dr. Mary Scollay, the equine medical director for the Kentucky Commission. AThe thing we have failed to do all along is talk to the people, and that, as it turns out, is where we have gotten our best information about how to change the situation.@ During the panel, Finger Lakes= examining veterinarian Dr. Lisa Hanelt discussed how paying attention to the horse population at a specific track can help examining veterinarians prevent catastrophic injury. For instance, what might be considered high risk at a track like Keeneland, may not necessarily be at a track like Finger Lakes. AThe population of horses racing at each racetrack is slightly different,@ she said. AThis means the risk factors are also probably slightly different. They will share some things in common, and the Jockey Club risk factors are indeed important for our horses, but there are other things that are specific to ours. For examining veterinarians, the bottom line is anyone can do this. It is not anything special. Make a spread sheet and look at your horses. Identify your high-risk cluster of horses.@ One track that has publicly stated it wants to be an AHow much insight have we forgone by not holding example of a Abest practice@ facility under the Safety tracks, horsemen and facilities accountable for the and Integrity Alliance is Woodbine.

AMore than anything, it is important that this program be uniformly adopted by the states. If it is not adopted by all the states, or the majority of the states, it will not be effective. One of our goals is to encourage states to adopt this portion of the medication program. The industry is closer than ever to a uniform medication policy. I hope to stand up here in a year and be able to tell you that we have uniformity in most, if not all, jurisdictions on these 26 medications.
