The attraction of racing in the US is that the horse can race on Lasix - an anti-bleeding agent which is banned in Australia.

Latest. Likely new home for Scenic Blast will be Arcadia, California, with leading US trainer John Shirreffs. Shirreffs most recent claim to fame was preparing unbeaten superstar Zenyatta, who capped a 14-win streak (12 in stakes races) by becoming the first female to win the Breeders' Cup Classic at Santa Anita, in November 2009. |
