"In California, horses are not permitted to have more than one anti-inflammatory in their system during a race."
An anti-inflammatory drug plus Lasix makes two drugs that are allowed on race day. Everyone knows Lasix can mask drugs in a horse's system and according to the article NSAIDs can also mask other drugs. I am not so naïve to believe trainers do not take advantage of the rule of allowing two masking drugs on race day so that they can mask other drugs in a horse's system.
So much for only allowing only Lasix on race day.

The anti inflammatory isn’t given on race day. Only Lasix is.
If you’re now talking of threshold limits allowed, then please do tell us what the threshold limits are in that racing utopia Hong Kong?
