The Florida Derby field was just ok in my book.. no world beaters and horses like Johansburg Star do not get blood flowing? The time was just ok at 1:49 and change for what everyone knows that Gulfstream is always made to be very fast on big race days.. or is that Churchill??

On a final note as one knows..your only as good as the supporting staff around you.. and Mr Pletcher should be very thankful for that. But just as the bunch of them did to Lukas.. one day his assistants will take off one by one on their own.. and when that happens it will be interesting to see how good Mr. Pletcher really is.

pletcher is good enough to have assembled a team that fits well together, and does a fantastic job. if some leave, you have to replace with other like-minded individuals. when something works well, it's amazing!
