ADJUNCT BLEEDER

Postby zort91 » Sun Apr 06, 2008 7:35 am

I was at Keeneland racecourse over the weekend. They used a racing term that I've not heard of before........Adjunct Bleeder. Does anyone know what this means. They designate it in the program as LA instead of just L for Lasix

premarin can be tough to get so the Estro is often the substitute

Glad to see that premarin is hard to get.After the exploitation of mares by the PMU industry and the brutal handling of their unwanted foals IMO they should have been out of business a long time ago.I could never understand the need for an industry to use horses to manufactor a product that was available in a synthetic form. Irony to then turn around and use it for horses.Conjugated estrogen has been around forever.
