Well Jay,
If Pletcher was training this horse and Pletcher had him sick for a day or two and Pletcher ran him anyway because Pletcher knew he had to make the race to stay on the Derby Trail and if Pletcher ran the 2 yo champ and undefeated colt in this race and the horse finished last at 1-20, then Pletcher would certainly be taking heat.
Half the people here would be saying he was what is wrong with racing. And someone here, sure as hell, would be saying how Pletcher f'ked the betting public by not disclosing the horse's condition.
And you'd be among the first to muster up behind those leading that charge.
Aside from the adoration Zito gets on this message board that borders on zealous worship, he makes mistakes.
You lose badly at 1-20 with the undefeated 2 yo champ that fevered up during the week, you are going to take heat.
That's real life, son.
