Her current overall statistics nonwithstanding, I think it is ethically questionable and somewhat unprofessional for you and Cannon Shell to publically bash her in such a fashion. As for the specific management of your horse, as I am neither charged with her care, nor an investor in her, where or when she races is not my province. However, If you don't appreciate someone commenting on your choices in such a fashion, why do you think it is appropriate to do the same?
Well, two wrongs don't make a right...but I understand the point. As I've said, I don't understand what she's done wrong...the Derby is a once in a lifetime opportunity for MOST trainers, and all she did afterwards was take her time and then make what everyone seems to think was the correct decision...yet the criticism and attacks on her personally including, in some threads, remarks about her hair, her intellect, her overall looks...hard to take!
