I'm not even sure where it says Fly Down is getting time off.

The quote says that he is possible for the upcoming Louisiana Derby.

it doesn't say that fly down is getting time off. and a horse going through conditions is being pushed?

Yes - he's going to have at most 4 races going into the Preakness.

that's far from being pushed, especially in this day and age. he's got the pedigree, he seemingly has talent. if he continues to move forward, there's no reason not to run him. hell, horses go straight to stakes off a maiden win. you're making too much of this.

Ok, I'll concede on this one. I'm just happy that Mineshaft has a few nice horses out there now...
