whether Pletcher was dodgin SS is up for debate but he did say he just felt that the 20 between The Haskell and The Travers is just too short and would have been rushing him back into training and with the BC as the major goal that wouldn't have been an ideal situation.
That isn't the first time we've heard this, Tagg said that about running Funny Cide though he was going too, Baffert mentioned it when talking about Point Given. It has been mentioned quite a few times that they don't like the spacing between those two races.
