After reading all that from the owners, the question I have is: have you taken the horse from Pletcher's barn?
I have no problem at all with Pletcher sending the horse out to see how she warms up.
But if JV felt like that - enough to announce it to the TV audience - he should have gotten a day or few for not bringing it up to the gate vet. KHRC blew this one.
