Horseracing

Question
I have a 2 year old that has raced twice 6 furlongs in maiden spec weight.  Both races were the same he breaks on top run a 22 flat 1/4,  46 at the 1/2 and after that shuts down.  I have him on lasixs.  I will drop him to 10,000 clm
next out any other advice.

Answer
hi  there are many reasons that a horse quits in a race.  one could be he is bleeding, but you can scope him to see if there is any blood in his lungs, or if he has a infection.  also checks for oxlips in his throat. 21 yr olds tend to get those and they shut down the wind for the horse. also shins could be a problem too. your vet will know if anything t like that is wrong   hope this helps you  thanks ED HESS
