Pletcher could convince WinStar Cowtowns best chance is a speed pop even though he really doesn't think its Cow's best chance. Pletcher is obviously NOT a stand up guy so that is possible. How probable is your guess. This is a 1.5 million dollar horse and WinStar is a big client for Pletcher. He plays with their best interests and they will take their well bred horses elsewhere. Thats my read upon it, everyone is free to make their own reads. I don't think Jara is a speed pop jockey either unless they tell him to "go baby go". Cowtown is two generations removed on the sire side from Danzig and three from Mr. Prospector. On the female side hes two removed from Storm Cat. I like the slightly watered down influence, but the horse obviously has speed to use if they wish to use it.
Part of winning the Derby involves visualizing the race. Maybe Cow does blaze away. Maybe he doesn't.
