now to my question that no one here has answered , do you think todd wanted to run every one of those starters in the derby? do you think he had a choice on each horse ?
i don't think he wanted to run certain horses in those big races , thus in my opinion i think it's unjust and unfair for people here to bash his record to the extent that they do because they don't know what the owners wanted to do

Yes, you are probably correct that some of these entries were "owner decisions," but the reason a lot of people question Pletcher's big race record is that his stable has not performed the same on these days when the horses are more closely surveilled than it does the rest of the year. For that reason, your analogy between Pletcher and Dominguez is completely flawed.
