I never heard a reason for not trying Keyed entry in the sprints after his failure in the classic distance. Just a lot of questions about his allstar 3yr olds last year. It appears he has all the excuses and is always given the free pass.

No I get what you are saying. Didn't he have like 20 or so more horses nominated to the Triple Crown than any other trainer? I think the fact that it is Pletcher though, most of these horses go over-rated and tail off by their 3 year old season. The only really good one he had as a 3 year old was Bluegrass Cat and we touched upon him. Didn't he try Keyed Entry back once after the classics, or am I confusing him with someone else?

Baffert on the other hand... Although Bob and John, Sinister Minister and Point Determined all went off way over-bet in my opinion and all three of them post bullets at a regular basis but none of them are actually racing. Bob and John did retreat terribly in his one start this summer. Horse needs some confidence or something.
