This woman makes me sick

[Danzig]

absolutely disgusting.

this part piqued my interest:

Lefever was recommended to Patterson by another trainer at Penn National in Grantsville, Pa., and he heard positive things from other horsemen about her efforts to retrain and re-home ex-racehorses.


now, we all know there are supposed to be rules-was she recommended by other trainers who knew full well what was going on? if she had such a good track record, who gave her that record? she evidently didn't earn such praise. are trainers paying lip service to efforts to place horses? are they turning a blind eye to people who aren't actually re-training horses?
