I can't argue that the winning percentage is dreadful. I just think she gets beaten up more than the average trainer, especially one with as little experience as she has.

she has got some decent horses and has sent out 229 starters this year. its not like she is some start-up trainer working with a limited number of hand-me-downs.
her stats are called into question because they are not anywhere near average and it stands out. I don't consider that beating up on her its merely pointing out her record.
i see that she owns Furlong Baby so at least she answers only to herself for the performance. but if i'm an owner sending her horses you better believe i'd be asking some questions.

I happen to know that one of her "decent" horses is a horse that I couldn't give away as a weanling or as a yearling. He's managed to get a check in 5 of his 7 starts in open and NYB company and has been pretty close to some good horses. So from my frame of reference she does pretty well.

She has an ownership interest in Teuf as well. She has managed to make some money with some pretty low quality stock but caught lightning in a jar with Teuflesberg.

I saw the last race with juvi Sanoran Desert at Turfway. It was a speed biased surface but SD was only a few lengths off the leaders at the wire. I thought he ran well.

you must have a very liberal frame of reference.
