They may very well be good horse trainers but with as many positives as this man gets there is alot of miscommunication going on somewhere. I think The Asst. would be the first place to look.

Ray Paulick indicates that the Pletcher stable believes Wait a While was treated with procaine G penicillin 18 days before the Breeders’ Cup for a resperatory infection.

Very well could have been. That formulation is given intramuscularly, and it could have been slowly metabolized.

Wow. An antibiotic positive.

Snore.

Losing Benzel seems like it's had an effect on him, though. . .

Seth ...after a little bit of a slow start... is certainly now doing pretty well...

but.... I'm thinking that TP took the Training title at Saratoga this past meet and that was after Seth had gone on his own

Actually, Kiaran took the training title this past meet with 17 wins from 62 starts. Pletcher was second with 15 wins from 103 starts. Of the 12 trainers with the most wins, Pletcher had the second worst winning percentage (14.56%) only behind Contessa's dismal 7.5%.
