And...so what? Thorograph has (rightly) been one of the biggest critic's of the "Move-up" trainers in the last decade, and of Dutrow in particular. Dutrow himself this spring told one of the Industry Trade Magazines that Sis City was as good as she was in Florida this winter because her vet was none other than Steve Allday, claiming that Allday was a great vet for resolving "hind end" problems like she had. Uh-huh.
So why marvel at Saint Liam's figures at all? If Saint Liam is being enhanced by a vet in shady ways, his figures are meaningless as a tool to assess ability.
By the way, for all the flack I took on this board from people about my claim that the Lousiana Derby was an over-rated bogus race, I'll smugly point out that the first three home out of that race ran this weekend at Saratoga. None of them ran in the money, and for all I know they might all still be trying to finish their races even as I write this.
Louisiana Derby 2005 = Terrible Race with Bad Horses that got Bogus Figures, and they prove it even now, five months later, as they continue to run up the track every time they do run.
