Belmont Stakes 2012: Stewards won't permit I'll Have Another to wear
nasal strip in Belmont Stakes
The nasal strip that I'll Have Another wore while winning the Kentucky
Derby and Preakness willnot be allowed in the June 9 Belmont Stakes.
I'll Have Another will be forced to make a subtle, but perhaps
significant, equipment change when he tries to become racing's 12th
Triple Crown winner in the 144th Belmont Stakes on June 9, not because
his connections want to, but because they are being required to do so
by Belmont Park stewards.
In both the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, I'll Have Another has
raced with a Flair Equine Nasal Strip across his nose, similar to the
Breathe Right strips popular with some human athletes. He also wore a
nasal strip when he won the Robert Lewis Stakes and Santa Anita Derby,
and last summer at Del Mar, when he finished second in the Best Pal
Stakes.
However, stewards at New York Racing Association racetracks, which
includes Belmont Park, have decided not to allow nasal strips. This is
not a New York State Racing and Wagering Board rule, nor even a
Belmont Park house rule. It is a decision made by the stewards.
Dr. Ted Hill, the Jockey Club steward at Belmont Park, said the nasal
strip issue has been reviewed a number of times and said the problem
is how to regulateits use.

Changes for blinkers, bar shoes, and Lasix, for instance, are
announced in New York. Changes regarding other equipment, such as
shadow rolls, tongue ties, and bits, are not denoted. But all of those
items are allowed.
Curiously, nasal strips are permitted in New York for harness racing.
But the line has been drawn in Thoroughbred racing at NYRA tracks.
"If it's really going to help the horse that much, to be fair and
consistent, we have to regulate it," Hill said. "That's always been
the issue."
Part of the issue, Hill said, is what to do with a horse who was
scheduled to wear a nasal strip if the strip comes off in the
paddockor at the gate, perhaps because ofwet weather. Further, Hill
said there has not been a clamor amongNew York horsemen to use it.
"We've never had someone say, 'What can we do here because we'd like
to use this product?' " Hill said. "There's really been no push for
it."
Doug O'Neill, the trainer of I'll Have Another, on Friday said that
although he believes the nasal strip is "a safe, natural piece of
equipment for the horse, I completely respect the New York rules and
will not use one."
Flair, the company that makes the equine nasal strip, argues that its
product is humane in that it promotes better lung function and helps
alleviate the need for anti-bleeding medication, such as Lasix. The
company says the strips "provide drug-free support and protection of
the respiratory system of the hard-working equineathlete," and said
eight clinical studies show that the strips "reduce airway resistance,
reduce lung stress and bleeding, reduce fatigue, and shorten post-
exercise recovery time."

errors, FDA has issued a rule requiring bar codes on the labels of
thousands of
human drugs and biological products. This measure will help protect
patients from preventable medication errors, reduce the cost of
