Dr. Allday has been the featured vet for the weekly 'Horse Health Today' segment from before I started on the show, and will come on whenever asked. I think after interviewing him on more than 75 occasions, I believe have a good feel for what buttons I can push with him and which I can't. I have asked him on several occasions for clarifications of events which may have involved illegalities, and he answers with extreme caution.

You might want to note that comments like he made Friday would not come on that forum if he didn't have a certain comfort level with the show as a setting for his call. He will say exactly what he wants to say, and if I had to guess what his objective was Friday, I'd say it was to fuel further investigation into the Wild Desert affair specifically. Anything he said or alleged, he will back up with proof. He did offer his records to any authority that wants to see them...

There are few major barns that Dr. Allday has not worked with at one time or another. He works on all of the Pletcher horses.. As well as Dale Romans'. He has done work for Frankel. His comments regarding Frankel were related to him taking on the saddling responsibilities for Wild Desert in the Queen's Plate without knowing much about what was going on and that being slightly irresponsible on Bobby's part.

Appreciate you listening to the show and sharing your thoughts.

Well then Sirius needs to put a disclamer on their show that individuals that call not to make accusations without providing some proof. I can't see how Sirius doesn't allow you to question individuals that open a can of worms like Allday did on Friday. You didn't pry these claims out of him. He voluntarily gave them without prodding and I don't see what is Sirius fear of questioning when accusations are made like that. I can only see a lawsuit happening when they make these accusations on-air without cutting them off or without providing evidence. To me it was open season at that point and without proof it was slander anyway. Sure he said his records are open but as the listening public do we really know that? Unlike SCAV'S claims, I'm like others aren't here looking for apologies. It's just people who are either fans or just in this entertainment for betting purposes who like an insider's view of what is happening to this sport or their betting money. Sorry but Dr. Allday worked for two guys in Dutrow and Frankel that are suspected or charged of illegal activity and now works for Todd Pletcher who has had his shares of problems and allegations. So what's not to say Dr.Allday is not part of the problem as well and it might be sour grapes attack on Dutrow.Thanks again.
