Reminder: HISA Requirements for Working Off a Vet’s List

THA Release

HISA has asked horsemen’s associations to remind trainers about the protocols for a horse working off a vet’s list. The blood sample collected following that workout is subject to the same testing measures as a post-race sample. For example, the withdrawal guidelines for basic medications such as acepromazine and omeprazole are 72 and 24 hours, respectively, and that should be a consideration when scheduling a vet’s list workout. Additional protocols can be viewed HERE.
