The lasix issue aside, seems to me that most of her points "against" foreign racing were essentially variations on the theme that there is "too little" racing going on in those countries.

I'm not sure that's really a negative.

Aren't some of the main problems in this country that there is too much racing overall (eg, too many stakes, too many bottom-level claiming races with slot-infused purses) and too many people with "horseman" licenses that don't deserve them?
