Pletcher leaves the discussion once Life At Ten hits the track. He doesn't even watch the warm-up or post parade - after he saddles the horse he goes to some room to watch the race.

He was not in a room.. He was standing right there at the rail. They were even questioning him about it while they were heading to the gate and he said she didn't seem like "normal".

As far as running slow/fast that was'nt my point. My point was that because of her being in such distress, could have caused her to have a heart attack being asked to go run her a$$ off.

It was all in poor judgment on all parties and I just hope there are no lasting effects from her being made to run tonight.
