I don't think she uses Dutrow as a trainer. She uses Amoss and Assmussen, among others.

" I learned so much about Rick Dutrow" is what she said

She doesn't even use Dutrow? Then why would he choose her as his mouthpiece??

If not as a trainer, maybe a new client

I wish there was a central website - DRF? - where you could pay to download lifetime histories of days off/positives on trainers.

Now, it's going to be a rare trainer that has nothing at all (Mandella got a micro-positive on Tin Man out of his last race, in fact, for a NSAID) - but patterns and repeated violations, and degree of violation, would matter to me as an owner selecting a trainer.

Edit: I just realized the above sounds exactly like Maggie Moss defending Dutrow as, "well, it wasn't as bad as cobra venom!"

I think each governing body probably has a website. I know California puts their suspensions/rulings on the net.

These are the Del mar rulings

Me neither. Since her falling out with Contessa, she has used Bruce Levine in NY.

She must have some relationship with Dutrow, as Steve said that he contacted Dutrow to be on today, and he directed him to her (at least I think that's what Steve said).
And one more thing, did her statement about her prior trainers that she fired doing bad things to her horses indirectly indict Contessa?

Well, if that is the case, then Dutrow probably called in a favor and asked her to handle the phone call. I can't wait for the archives to be up so I can listen to her WHOLE interview
