Mrs. J. Magnier, D. Smith, and M. Tabor's Plutarch (c, 3, Into Mischief–Stellar Wind, by Curlin) was bred to be a star–he is out of 2015's champion 3-year-old filly turned $6-million Keeneland mare–and he made good on that promise Saturday in the $100,000 GIII Robert B. Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita. Midpack early, he hooked up with 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Intrepido (Maximus Mischief) and two battled down the lane before Plutarch dispensed of his rival to secure a one-length victory with his ears pricked under Florent Geroux. Intrepido held for second while Secured Freedom (Practical Joke) got up for third. Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert won his eighth consecutive Bob Lewis and 14th overall. The race was worth 20-10-6-4-2 points on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. After a 2-year-old campaign which netted placings in the GI American Pharoah Stakes and GIII Del Mar Juvenile Turf Stakes, Plutarch broke his maiden in his last out, a Del Mar maiden special weight on the lawn.

Ban to "withhold water from a horse" Furosemide banned also??
Chief Stipe replied to Thomass's topic in Galloping Chat
You're an idiot. The rule is about the withholding of water. So if a horse is dehydrated after being given a preventative medicine then it would be an offence to not give it water. Of course you could argue that if you were truly interested in the welfare of a horse you would allow Furosemide because it is effective in preventing EIPH (Exercise Induced Pulmonary Haemorrhage. But no you don't raise that but focus on how it isn't fair to punters - oh the hypocrisy! - Yesterday

These changes are intended to better protect everyone involved in the industry from online abuse.https://bitofayarn.com NZTR proposes that Rule 801 be amended as follows: 801 (1) A person commits a Serious Racing Offence within the meaning of these Rules who:https://bitofayarn.com (s) either by themselves or in conjunction with any other person: does or permits or suffers to be done any act which an Adjudicative Committee deems fraudulent, corrupt or detrimental to the interests of racing; orhttps://bitofayarn.com at any time writes or causes to be written (including in any form of electronic or digital communication), publishes or causes to be published, or posts or causes to be posted on any website, medium, forum, platform or any social media or social networking service, or utters or causes to be uttered, any insulting or abusive words with reference to a Tribunal, NZTR, committee of a Club or a member or Official of any such body or a Stipendiary Steward or Investigator, or Registered Medical Practitioner;https://bitofayarn.com without limiting sub-Rule (1)(s)(ii) of this Rule, posts or causes to be posted on any website, medium, forum, platform, or any social media or networking service, that is available to the public, or any section of the public, any comment, image, video, digital or electronic communication, that may insult, humiliate or cause serious emotional distress to any entity or person referred to in that sub-Rule or to any Licenceholder or other industry participant, or that is otherwise harmful to the reputation or standing to the New Zealand racing industry;

So a proposed new rule banning 'withholding water from a horse" my understanding is Furosemide is still allowed here in the training of horses...just as it is widely used in Australia by the likes of Waller How can NZTR rationalise speaking of their commitment to 'horse welfare' while allowing the rapid dehydrating of horses in training? HKJC have long since banned the use of F in training as punters became aware some were using and some weren't...which in turn screwed training analysis it should also be banned here "3. EQUINE WELFARE. It is never acceptable to stop a horse from having water, unless a veterinarian has specifically told you to do so. This behaviour should be dealt with seriously. While Rule 1402(1) generally requires that a horse’s needs are met, deliberately not giving a horse water is considered a much more serious matter and should be clearly banned by the Rules. NZTR proposes that Rule 1402(2) be amended as follows: 1402 (2) Without limiting sub-Rule (1) of this Rule, each person to whom this Rule applies in respect of a horse must: (a) ensure that the horse receives, as soon as is reasonably practicable, husbandry or treatment that alleviates any deficiencies in nutrition or provisions or unreasonable or unnecessary pain or distress being suffered by the horse; (b) not withhold water from the horse to the detriment of its health, welfare or safety

It looks bad but you'd need the HD stipes vision to be totally evidential. They already said those two were strikes though and they are nowhere near the rump. -

"didn't look appropriately located" doesn't sound as if you are convinced. Are you and @Thomass having your Sunday review sessions while you count your punting losses from the day before? Who holds the remote? Or do you have one of those mouse type arrangements with the ball like a third umpire? -

Spaz means incompetent or uncoodinated person. @Bill could always claim his was correct in his assertion. -
