Pletcher's stock

[Calzone Lord]

Pletcher with 2yo first-time starters at Saratoga:

31-for-151 (21% wins and $1.71 ROI)


Pletcher with all horses age 3 and up:

70-for-374 (19% wins and $1.27 ROI)


That's a 36.5% loss on every dollar bet -- from a 5-year sample. Way more than double the takeout.


Any horse he had who ran well at Gulfstream Park -- is an especially terrible bet at Saratoga.

What with Pletcher these days. Horses showing up with works in .59 , .47. etc. What happened to the cookie cutter works of .49, 1.02 for every horse. Change in training style ?

What do you do with Pletcher's pair in the finale tomorrow? Big Creek and Dan and Shiela?

Personally, I will be trying to get Springcourt involved (hopefully) at a price.

Ugh. That's one of those leap of faith races, either single Big Creek or go all.

I like Prince Arion to beat both the Pletchers.
