Default Pletcher suspension upheld

http://news.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=36663

Todd actually spoke about this at the ongoing racing symposium in Phoenix and the substance detected was at the level of 1.6 NANOGRAMS(one nanogram is one-billionth of a gram), which would not be illegal in any other jurisdiction.
If he chooses to take it now, it would make a lot of sense. Hes already got the Eclipse and money titles wrapped up, and no really huge races in the next 45 days. He could be training again by January's end.

That was nearly two and a half years ago, and what ever happen to that horse (Tales of Glory) it must have been a two year old then.

Walk away Renee....Left Banke. I have my opinion of this guy. He has some great lawyers. He always seems to have the option of being suspended when all his great stock are not running in the dead of winter. What a bunch of bullsh!t

He also had something to do with Iraq War, and Watergate although he was only a young guy at the time. Rumor has it he actually poisoned that Russian spy in England also.

We all know you kiss certain asses. Horse racing is pure and so are the politics behind it.

His lawyers are merely high priced. If they were great he would have beat the case.

And we all know you spend most of your time writing about some mule that hasn't started yet and probably never will.
