“I saw very, very few breakdowns in Dubai, and there was only
one fatality other than heart attacks that I saw. I feel the reason
for so few is because there is no medication. When you give a
horse [Butazolidin], it takes away inflammation and reduces pain.
If you don’t give a horse Bute, he’ll feel the pain and the trainer
will notice the inflammation and the heat and not race him.”

secretary of the Emirates Racing Association before becoming Arlington
Park’s director of racing and racing secretary in 2005
