OK....Who brought the Herpes

The Maryland Department of Agriculture has placed hold orders on eight farms in Maryland. Apparently seven horses were "possibly" exposed to the equine herpes virus while in Leesburg, Virginia. According to spokeswoman Sue duPont, none of the farms are associated with the states thoroughbred industry.

We went through this exact scenario a few years back. We the Pimlico Spring Meet approaching, we can not afford to have a quarantine placed on Maryland racing. Lets keep our figures crossed, and hope for the best.

I had a thing on my lip a few weeks ago, but Blistex cured me! Maybe that would be a good additive to horse feed.
