Money talk$ and bull$hit walks bub. I also agree strongly with much that FGfan stated about Maggi Moss. Everyone is entitled to a fair defense and she is coming to their defense. She is also exactly what we need for the game by the way. Every horse can't be a Grade 1 winner, and most horses she runs are claimers and upper level allowance horses.

Put yourself in Maggi Moss' shoes. She wakes up monday and says I want to do something good for the game. I think I should:
A) Pull my horses from these trainers who have checkered pasts and give them to trainers who might not have such crazy win percentages as the checkered ones, but are successful.
B) Say that guys like Dutrow, Assmussen are not the problem and we should look past them and go after the testing labs instead. Then go on to instead put my energy into defending these guys.
She is choosing B. There is a lot wrong with that. Sorry if you cant see that.
One of the ways to get rid of this problem is for owners to stop sending horses to guys who juice. She chooses not to and still use them. So I dont want to hear how she is so good for the game.
