It means that the horse is racing on the medication Lasix for the first time. Lasix is the trade name for furosemide and is a diuretic used to prevent pulmonary bleeding in race horses. Approx. 80% of U.S. race horses run usuing Lasix.

Subsequent uses of lasix will still be noted in the race program, sans "1."
