I challenge Big Brown to run without all his steroids and drugs.
Another practice in Japan that will be followed with Casino Drive is the lack of medications on Belmont Day.
Tada said Casino Drive would not be administered steroids or bleeder medication. He said there were no plans to administer Butazolidin either, although he left open the window for that to change, depending upon the horse. He said the medications, widely used in the U.S., are not used in Japan.
