I believe the Pletcher factor has hurt his odds a little in the futures.
This horse had run the best losing performance by any 2yo last year, when he was 2nd in his season finale, only Nobiz Like Shobiz's loss in the Champagne can really even be compared with it from that standpoint.
With a different trainer, I highly doubt this horse would have closed as low as the 14/1 he did last week---before even having a single 3yo run under him.
