Interesting quote...
Take the Points most recently was fourth in the Santa Anita Derby (gr. I).

"He’s been competitive in his races. I don’t want to leave one I think can win in the barn."

Better quote

Advice, owned by WinStar Farm, won the Lexington Stakes (gr. II) at Keeneland April 18.

"Advice worked well and came out of it well. The question is if coming back in two weeks and going from the grass to a mile and a quarter on dirt is too much," Pletcher said.

I'd love to see an even better quote that would somehow suggest that finishing a distant 6th in the Sunland Derby makes him even remotely competitive in the Kentucky Derby.

You know what? Lukas is sounding more like Pletcher these days and Pletcher is sounding more like Lukas...vice versa.
