What is this all about? Does a race go off on the NY circuit where there aren't some sort of families intertwined, how could this be the person who goes down for giving a look of impropriety? Is she lying & there's more to this story? If not this seems ridiculous.

Gambling and all that.


From the guts of it.
A Lasix vet is not required to be on the front-side to do his or her work.

However, Dixon said she was never told she was not permitted to be on the frontside whether on or off the clock.

"Atras, a former assistant to Robertino Diodoro, went out on his own in January and has won nine races from 15 starters at the Aqueduct meet. "

I can't read minds, but I'd have to think this has something to do with it also. When any trainer gets that hot, cynical horse players tend to immediately suspect the worst. Throw family status on top of it and I guess they wanted to quell any suspicions.
