One of my concerns is that if bute is legal, nearly all the riders would be using it “just in case”  their horse stepped on a rock or something – for they would be at a disadvantage if they didn’t.  I guess it would depend on what the allowable levels are.  Are they a regular dose given that day?  Or a few days before?  Perhaps minor lameness would not show up, and they could complete or push it a bit harder.  So it might become the standard of preparatory care, so to speak.
