You're talking about a trainer scratching a horse while 3/1 in a $2 million race beacuse she's quiet in the saddling area?
Pletcher leaves the discussion once Life At Ten hits the track. He doesn't even watch the warm-up or post parade - after he saddles the horse he goes to some room to watch the race.

Life At Ten is classy speed horse - she ran her opening quarter mile in 28.84 seconds - I haven't made my pace figures yet ... but she didn't run fast enough to have a heart attack.
The slowest horse on the backside of Penn National would have been in front of her.
