Are we going to count horses from when he was a Lukas assistant too? What the hell, right?

He did have the one really, super fast older horse that was getting very good, Left Bank.

If we were to start a thread of horses who have had their lives cut short and
left us way to soon , or those with early career ending injuries . It could turn out to be quite lengthy .
Ruffian , Swale , Landaluce , Lost In The Fog , Go For Wand......
Just a few unfortunate heartbreaking examples . My point is Pletcher has had misfortune and bad luck . I hardly think he takes these things lightly and I don't think he deserves to be called a butcher .It is what it is .
I wish they all could celebrate their 30th birthday like Storm Cat . That would be perfect .
Happy Birthday Storm Cat .
Done , I promise not to hijack the thread any further .

Did bad luck find him, or did he being it on through his actions?

We can't disagree about everything. That's no fun either.
