I don't like or dislike Maggi Moss, which is not the forums sentiment. It is very clear in this thread how the forum members percieve her. As well this just plays into the internet hysteria that even surfaced in this thread when someone said Amoss had a positive without any evidence whatsoever, "just a feeling". Well, having a positive and someone suggesting you had a positive are two completely different things.

Your comments are the same, you heard what you wanted to hear and are relaying that interview based on your sentiment.

What she said is that there is no uniformity in the drug testing situation, particularly in Texas. They will not do any bloodwork to perform quantative evidence of doping. She also stated that a LSU Dr. had reviewed the testing and said that it is possible it was a contamination, but because of the way Texas conducts their testing once postive there is no further testing, like bloodwork which is much better standard to use than urine. Or that it had been metabolized, which is much different than injecting to block.

She never implied it was wrong to go after Assmusen or Dutrow. What she did say was that it would be ludicrous for Assmussen to have injected a 1/5 filly in a MSW, what would be the point, particularly in a state like Texas.

She also spoke about the terrible things that do happen in this sport, that horses are abused, blocked, slaughtered and so on. BUT because there is no uniformity state to state, no definitive way to do testing, someone can test positive in Texas but not test positive in Kentucky which has a much better process of testing. The fact there is no standard from track to track this is what she wants to address.


Oh and you forgot to mention another foundation she has established to help owners that can't afford to fix their injured animals and therefore have to euthanize them. Her foundation would help owners to save horses that get injuries that are expensive and let them be retired.

I'm not her cheerleader here, although it sounds like it, I really have no opinion, but if you are going to relay information make it more truthful of what was said and not just your "feelings"

Gimme a break.....when the whole thing went down with Allday vs Dutrow she came out swinging for Dutrow. Now she is defending Assmussen. She has a history of defending guys who have been caught over and over again. She employs guys like Lake, Contessa, Assmussen. Guys who are cheats. If she wants to "save" the sport , she should pull her horses from these guys and give em to real horsemen who dont have histories of positives. She is a lawyer...she is just spinning things her way.

You are nuts if you think people like her are good for the game.
