She wants to clean up the game, but she employs three of the biggest moveup trainers out there with probably 80% of her stock. Hypocritcal. I would love 3 minutes with her on the phone, tear her ass to shreds, and I don't care how smooth she is with her lawyer talk.

You want to clean up the game Maggi, how about employing trainers that don't get positives every month.

And I am just thinking of Lake/Asmussen and Amoss right now, I am sure there are others...

she was also on Steve's show defending R. Dutrow a while back...and keeps her NY horses with the guy that just had 40 of his horses sampled at Monmouth; not drawing any premature conclusions, jus' sayin'...She's quite the authority

I remember that crap she pulled defending Dutrow. Forgot she had Levine, yet another move up guy.

It is great.

Also used to use Contessa. One of the games biggest cheats.

So, I read the article and yeah, I get it. Party line, company line, and all that. However, forget about that for a minute. I don't care about all the propaganda. Very simply, Asmussen came up positive and he should get punished -- period. How much, when, etc. -- the same ol' same 'ol arguement over and over again.

But -- I do have a question. Honestly, what do people really think about how this really played out. Why would Asmussen treat this horse, in this race, or push the envelope, treat her too close . . . whatever . . . why would he do this on this horse who is a strong favorite to walk over the field?

Question -- if he did this, he knew he'd get caught, right? Very, very highly probable. So I know there are all the suppositions -- the mask didn't work (nah), he wanted to make sure, he was going to cash a ticket, and so on. The horse was 1-5. Tell me the horse paid a good # and I can see my way clear of anything being possible. The vets know what tests and what doesn't. This wasn't some designer or exotic drug. Every case is different, but here, what gives?

I run through all this in my head, and just think about the how and why. Now, most important -- and I've always said this, and ever strayed -- it doesn't matter!!! Positive test? Days and pays -- period.

Yeah she was defending Dutrow when he was faking workouts to make a horse eligible at Woodbine for the Queens Plate a couple years back if memory serves telling us how poor Rick would feed his horses instead of himself.....when you read the DRF article from today and he is throwing Contessa under the bus because his results must be cheating I just want to vomit....talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

Maybe she does ride ......I can't write the rest of that sentence I would have nightmares for weeks from the images
