Happened about 3-4 years ago, three of his horses died after big efforts within a couple of days of each other, all from some unknown reason. I believe Left Bank died of Colic. Left Bank had just won the Whitney. I believe the other two were fillies, one had just one a Stakes Race. Seems alot of people are curious about their deaths, because they just ran huge efforts and Pletcher is considered to be a "high percentage" or "move up trainer". I don't know for sure if there was something given to them, to encourage those "move up" performances, so I have no opinion on that, but I sure wouldn't go running someone's name through the mud, without proof.
