Tyler Tribe suffers from EIPH in BC Juvenile Turf Sprint


After suffering a pulmonary hemorrhage caused by exercise in the race, Tyler tribe was defeated Keeneland course after completing the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G1T) on November 4.

A veterinarian called directly from the Association of Equestrian Practitioners of America provided an update on her condition after the 5 1/2 sprint.

EIPH Incident Veterinarian Al Ruggles said: “Most of the time in the race it was from their chest, lungs, due to broken capillaries. “And it’s a common thing – it happens in all athletes, human athletes. They don’t usually have excessive bleeding, but sometimes they do.”

After being loaded onto the cart shortly after finishing, the horse was taken back to the stable for inspection, Ruggles said. “He seemed stable when they loaded him.”

Ruggles said no physical problems other than bleeding were observed.

“We know how to treat it,” said Ruggles. “Certainly they often ask for a little break.”

Tyler’s Tribe finished second in the race and took the lead by a quarter mile. He finished second after three feather pulls before stopping in the first leg and being loosened up in the stretch. Jockey Kylee Jordan pulled ‘s son Sharp Azteca immediately after wire and remove.

This is the first time in six starts that the Iowa cross is not racing against the diuretic furosemide, commonly known as Lasix and used in an effort to prevent or reduce the severity of EIPH in the race. . All of his previous starts were in Prairie grasslands.

Drugs are not allowed in Breeders’ Cup races, a policy that is consistent with international standards as well as most major stock races — and minor races — in the United States. . Breeders’ Cup’s current policy on race-day Lasix (or furosemide) covers all of its World Championship races beginning in 2021.
