Todd Pletcher Quotes

Since the sale, he's been at Ashford, resting and doing a little jogging. We're in no hurry with him, although I still think he's the precocious type. We're just going to let him get settled in and take it slow.

You just want to see her do well... Hopefully, she can go out on a winning note. She doesn't owe us anything. She's been a superstar. It'll be sad when she does go, but by the same token she's going to go be a broodmare and after three years of running in the races she's been in, it will be nice to see her retire the right way. To do it all at two, three and four at all the different distances is amazing. She's a great filly. - Todd Pletcher

I'd like to get a race under his belt before jumping into the deep end, but this is not exactly an easy spot. He's trained well without overdoing it, and he's where we'd want him to be for his first start of the year. - Todd Pletcher

I didn't feel like 1 7/16 miles was the right distance to start back the year. It's a long year; she hasn't run since the E.P. Taylor. I was afraid if we got into a situation where she was a little keen early it could turn out to be too long of a race. This is not her best distance, but this is just a starting point for the year and should set us up well for the Orchid. - Todd Pletcher
