Pletcher to have no horses in the Travers

[Bravado2112]

I'm only 33 and I can still remember when horses would go Haskell - Travers - Woodward - Jockey Club Gold Cup - Breeders Cup or something like that. 2 starts over the summer, 2 in the fall, and then the BC.

Wasn't that long ago. Then it became 2 over the summer and 1 in the fall followed by the BC. Now it's 1 during the summer and 1 during the fall. It's practically reached the point of having to just write off the elite horses as no longer being a real part of the game. Ridiculous.
