Steve Perry, a co-owner of Lucy N Ethel, said the decision to send the horse to Amoss was made primarily because they wanted a Kentucky-based trainer to take over the handling of the horse because they are pointing her for the Oct. 22 GII Lexus Raven Run at Keeneland.
“This is the best thing for the horse,” he said. “Tom is the right kind of guy for the situation for our filly and we love his program. It’s not that we’re pushing anybody out. We were going to do this before everything blew up.”
But Perry did admit that by transferring the horse to Amoss, the stable will be avoiding some obvious headaches.
“It was time to move on,” he said. “Nobody did anything wrong and we were getting so much heat from the press and the stewards. Chloe was the assistant trainer and she took care of this horse the whole time she was in Florida. When she came back from Ocala where she was recuperating we gave her to Chloe to train. They says Chloe was just a ‘paper’ trainer and that’s not true. She’s getting railroaded. She’s been around this horse much more so than anybody.”

Quite a statement there. As long as "nobody did anything wrong", all should be fine from here on out.
