Why does it have to be so black and white? Why can't you read into the intricacies of each one of these wins and realize that plenty of things have gone right to allow this to happen?

How about this for odd, she has only had 11 horses finish in the money. She's just getting all the breaks right now.

When was the last time there was an article in the DRF about Pletcher or Dutrow doing anything improper anyway? Pletcher has had weeks on end that were as successful as Rice's run so far and the only thing it's been is Todd being Todd.

She is placing her horses well, they're on the turf just about every day (something that's essential for her success), and she's getting good breaks.

If you prefer the "she's winning a lot so she has to be cheating" line then have at it. At least suggest that she drop off some of whatever she's using at Rusty Arnold, Kenny McPeek, and Bruce Levine's barns.
