My opinion on Asmussen

Maybe you should "educate" yourself about some of the posters before you go around calling them names because of an opinion they have. FYI, I have seen first hand the **** that goes on on the backside. Guess what? This isn't the first bad test Asmussen has received. Do you know how many bad test that get "hushed" and only fines are given?? He had this coming to him for a long time. It's time the man ponies up and pays.
And BTW, it's ma'am.

A) I never remembered refferring to you as a 'man'..

B) If you think that I am a stranger to the backside then you are sorely mistaken...I've seen it all too...I can rub and walk a horse as good as the next man, I just chose to capitalize on my education and choose a career path on the frontside of the track. Does that make me a suit and tie-wearing idiot that has never laid a hand on a horse?...ahh, NO...I own several that I can handle up and down and that allows me an advantage as an owner because trainers cannot lie to me about a horse's condition because I can review them myself....When I learned the backside it was strictly to learn how to manage backside employees from an owners standpoint and it has worked to my advantage beautifully...

I apologize for calling you a moron, ma'am...that was uncalled for...I know Steve as well as anybody on here and I do not think he is a huge cheaper or I probably wouldn't have the respect for him that I have....
