Correction: 3 contenders in the SC raced with a performance enhancing drug!

Under the wording by Prince Bandar, Maximum Security (3mo Aqu) and Mucho Gusto(1moSA) and Midnight Bisou would be disqualified as all three received lasix within 6 months of the Saudi Cup. Is Prince Bandar incorrect in his statement that any runner in the SC is ineligible having raced with a performance enhancing drug?

However Mike Smith lost his % of the purse on Midnight Bisou due to overuse of the whip. Lasix is a performance enhancing drug. The question is: was the 6 month stipulation in place as conditions of the race before this announcement? Did any other runners in the race receive lasix for a workout or other diagnosis within the 6 month period. Vet's records could reveal that data.
