The Kentucky Horse Racing and Gaming Corporation, which met Tuesday, will reduce the number of days a horse must be on the vet's list for unsoundness from 14 days down to seven. The rule change, first reported by Paulick Report, was announced during the meeting by Dr. George Mundy and will take effect immediately.The report notes that the horse must sill be approved to work by the trainer's attending veterinarian and must also meet the state vet's requested diagnostic imaging requirements.Mundy also revealed that the KHRGC will not continue on with a pilot program through the Kentucky HBPA meant to obtain a third-party veterinary opinion in cases of regulatory vet scratches. The news comes following several office-hour sessions held by Mundy to discuss concerns on the backstretch regarding vet scratches.In place of that pilot program, Mundy noted that the KHRGC would instead turn its attention to a proposal which would allocate up to $500,000 to help subsidize the cost of advanced imaging for vet scratches through the Equine Drug Research Council.The post Kentucky Reduces Vet’s List Time For Unsoundness To Seven Days, Down From 14 appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
