Perhaps North America is Copy That's future, but his trainer doesn't believe bleeding is a problem.
Furthermore, the effects of bleeding are likely to be progressive and lung damage cumulative, ultimately leading to significant decreases in performance. This is likely because blood in the lung causes pulmonary inflammation (for at least three weeks following each episode), red cells are cleared slowly, and repeated bouts of exercise may result in repeated episodes of EIPH.

Now we will have to wait up to 45 days to see what the New Jersey Racing Commission does about it
The United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit Friday (March 3) ruled the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act (HISA) constitutional. The decision is in stark contrast with the Fifth Circuit ruling, which unanimously found HISA unconstitutional late last year.

I don't know whether it is a positive for Australia or says a lot about US racing that our horses dominated the first round of the Borgata Pacing Series for free-for-allers
"The top 40 open class US horses are competing in the series to be staged over five weeks at Yonkers"

Lochinvar Art is now 5 from 5 in the US
https://harnesslink.com/usa/lochinva...orgata-series/
While Lochinvar Art has been winning, mostly against horses he would handle with ease here at his peak, the great little mare Amazing Dream is backed with a vengeance.
She recorded her third win from three starts this year overnight at Yonkers. She sprinted past Racine Belle at the top of the straight rating 1:51.8. All her 3 wins have been $40,000 heats of the rich Matchmaker series and she has now won 29 times for over $1.75 million Aus.
Opinions about her drop in form late last year appeared largely ignorant as to the mare's racing patterns, total rubbish as she could win from anywhere. The facts are after running a cracking third in last year's Hunter Cup she was straight into racing in the snowbound USA. Eventually, she got her much-needed and deserved spell.
She led all the way in her first two wins this time in but took a sit last night.
As an aside, her 4 year old brother Special Dream must have used her as inspiration as he celebrated his 2nd win from 15 starts at Addington this afternoon. Raced by his breeders, his $16,879 NZ gives him a bit of work to do compared to his sister.
Lochinvar Art, Idealsomemagic, Leonidas, Amazing Dream, Dougs Babe - plenty of downunder interest in the Borgata and Matchmaker finals, Tuesday our time. Here are the draws
