Posted on Wednesday, November 26th, 2008
State agriculture officials have lifted a hold order on a Laurel Park barn after all 25 horses there tested negative for neurologic equine herpesvirus in a second round of tests.
Maryland Department of Agriculture officials lifted the order Wednesday, November 26, 11 days after the last known viral exposure in the barn.
When a 2-year-old filly in Barn 1 tested positive for EHV-1 on November 12, the Maryland Jockey Club announced no horses would be allowed to ship into Laurel Park except those from the Bowie Training Center. That order was lifted last week, but 60 horses were barred from leaving the grounds until the hold order was lifted.
