The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) and the New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC) today announced that the precautionary quarantine at Barn 86 at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., related to a positive case of Equine Herpesvirus-1 in that barn, has been lifted.
The unnamed, unraced filly, who is trained by Jorge Abreu, was sent to Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital on July 11 where she developed a fever. She was subsequently tested for a number of potential ailments, and a positive test for EHV-1 was returned on July 15. The filly, who began treatment immediately, is continuing to progress in her recovery.
The 46 horses stabled in Barn 86, which is home to stalls for Abreu and trainer Kenny McPeek, have all cleared quarantine without symptoms.
