dopar tal vez, si buscas una palabra en español que indique lo que le hiciero al pobre caballo, podrías emplear el verbo dopar: "fue mi padre quién/el que dopó a Zenyatta"

to bute The verb "to bute" (or "to bute up") is by no means unprecedented. I've found quite a few cases. Fraudulent sellers "bute" horses to disguise injuries that would otherwise discourage buyers. Horses are also "buted" to enable them to run when injured. It tends to imply dishonesty.

It refers to a drug called "Phenylbutazone, often referred to as bute" a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for the short-term treatment of pain, including the symptoms of arthritis, gout and ankylosing spondylitis.

dio buta a Zenyatta

Bute is the common name for phenylbutazone - a drug often given to horses when they show signs of pain.

Unfortunately, if not administered carefully, it can lead to the horse getting rather ill.

The girl here has turned "gave bute" into a verb "buted".

Here's a good explanation in English of what bute is:

"Just lately, I decided to educate myself on the subject of bute. You know what I’m referring to – that handy tube of paste, or container of powder, or liquid form which we frequently reach for when a horse in our care indicates it is in some form of pain, soreness or distress."

And in Spanish!
"El «Tratamiento Médico Autorizado» de los caballos argentinos y americanos en general, ha sido cuestionado desde hace tiempo por aquellas hípicas como la de Europa y Emiratos Árabes, que prohiben tanto el uso de la Furosemida (Lasix®), como de la Fenilbutazona, más conocida como «Buta».

"Muchos propietarios, criadores y entrenadores de caballos tienen en su botiquín veterinario una serie de medicamentos ó drogas las cuales en su mayoría son ó deben ser administradas por prescripción de un médico veterinario.

Una de las más comunes es la Fenilbutazona (conocida también como "Buta" ó Butazolidina), la cual con ó sin prescripción, es muy importante entender los riesgos potenciales y los beneficios de éste popular medicamento antes de ser administrado al caballo."
