Pletchers Demise

[Thunder Gulch]

Burnout is inevitable for trainers handling huge stables and putting in the hours demanded by competing at that level. Pletcher is still young and achieved his success at an age before most of the others. Considering his record in the Triple Crown and Breeders Cup, I think there is still a lot of desire in him to keep going at the current pace, but it is just about impossible to maintain for the long haul.
