Mike Welsch‏ (@DRFWelsch): Todd Pletcher reports Fountain of Youth 3rd place finisher Discreet Dancer off Triple Crown trail. Will get a break, return later in year.

I'm shocked.

Is later a euphamism for never?

Sounds like the same issue that plagued Brethren.

Didn't I read the other day that there was never anything " seriously " wrong with Brethren ( other than a bad case of the slows )? Which begs the question, how much time would he have missed with a real issue given this supposed nothing caused him to lose a year?

Excellent question. No matter how long, however, a massive GP return effort would be odds-on.

“He had a poor performance in the Arkansas Derby, so we just decided to give him some time off. He never really had any serious issues,” said Pletcher. “He’s ready to go, now we have to figure out where to start him back. I have him nominated for the Sir Shackleton, but nothing is definite yet.”

I dunno that 7-2 on a maiden winner in a 14-horse field is a gift, but he sure as hell was impressive.
