Pletcher taking vocab lessons from Steve?

[Swale84]

Pletcher is quoted in the DRF (http://www.drf.com/news/article/90586.html)
in regards to attaining the single-season earnings record:
"It's a real team effort," Pletcher said from Churchill Downs. "It's a microcosm of what our stable can do when you're striking on all fronts. It's a great accomplishment for the whole team."
